RE: What if user would be able to import key from permission tab with user friendly QR codes?
If you have your private key saved on your mobile, it is just copy and paste. Even that is not considered secure, but that's another subject. What I am particularly worried is to get QR images... If steemit will enable it back that's great, it might help to easily connect your app with steem account. But if user starts to generate QR images themselves using 3rd party services then that's a problem.
Yes, but you have to save it on your mobile first. If you used you laptop to register an account on Steem, then you have to manually type your posting key on your mobile device. Emailing or messaging it to yourself just doesn't look secure enough to me.
It would be great if Steemit could just re-enable QR codes in steemit.com, so that there's no need for a user to type in the key to store it on a mobile phone.
