Going forward: MultiBit HD and MultiBit Classic

[jim618]

That's right - there is no seed so you need copies of the private keys in all your wallets.

I recommend both copying the wallet (and the subdirectories with all the backups in) AND making a private key export.

You only really need one or the other but the only time you'll use a backup is when Something Bad Happened so make both sorts of backups just in case.

Will you be including features like multisig, coinjoin, and stealth addresses?

I expect the first version won't be able to import and export extended public and private keys but it would be a great feature to be able to choose which 'sort' you want to export and import.  It will be a bit difficult to explain it to people in a simple fashion though so we might have to put in an 'Advanced' mode or something.

So i will waiting for this future day when I can export pure private and public keys  for all my addresses   

Then you'll be waiting a long time 'cause with deterministic wallets exporting private keys for individual addresses is dangerous. See this article from vbuterin:

These would be awesome to see. The 'Advanced mode' for multibit could be very functional.

I was also wondering if the import 'classic' wallet into HD could be sent through coinjoin as an option? If we have to use a whole set of new addresses they may as well be taint free.

Its probably a bit late for extra features right now.... just in case 

One of the things i'd really like more control over is the individual balance of my addresses within a wallet. It would be very useful to have the ability to view balances for individual addresses and to a limited extent, craft transactions from whichever pool of coins i'd like to spend.

I also wondered about the possibility of adding a user defined 2FA for a high security wallet. say with an e-mail of better still a bitmessage confirmation code.??

My biggest user gripe is actually much more down to earth. I find myself accidentally renaming send addresses or worse writing over the destination address. A simple 'lock field' feature for trusted addresses would be awesome.
