Notes:

assuming this requires some db interaction on the backend - would need to be stable to avoid user-data loss
would need some form of verification flow
- i.e. user signs with old wallet to confirm account ownership -> user signs with new wallet to complete the process.
user would be responsible for editing their own stratum's to point to the "new" addr(s)
- assuming the associated lightning addr would also change, though it would be nice to not have that happen if possible

Goal:

Switch account-wallet w/o losing loyalty/uptime/best-pool-diff data

I know there are a handful of people that have needed or wanted this for a long time (self included), but it would be really useful to be able to change the wallet associated with a user's "account". This is beyond my capacity at the moment, so I'm only raising the suggestion; however, it would be really useful for people who want to secure their parasite account on a ledger/etc but had used a hot addr initially.
