Title: Privacy warning

How about an optional mode where Armory will throw a warning before executing a transaction any time it's not possible to spend the desired amount of bitcoins without combining inputs from different addresses?

The coin control feature gives you a work around to prevent mixing outputs. I guess we could add that option at some point though.

Coin control is orthogonal to this.

Users should receive a warning any time they are about to perform an action that permanently reduces their privacy, such as combining inputs from multiple addresses.

Fair enough

Another warning might be in order when the user clicks on "Request payment to this address" on an address which has previously been used.

I would really appreciate this feature.
