I created this commit to enable custom derivation paths. This enables maximum compatibility with existing wallets and standards, as per BIP44 and ethereum/EIPs#84. Any valid BIP39 mnemonic is now accepted.
Under Mnemonic Phrase there is now a radio selection menu:
Select HD derivation path
x m/44'/60'/0'/0 (default)
o m/44'/60'/0' (alternative)
o m/44'/60'/1'/0 (custom)
Path listed as default is currently used by: Jaxx, Metamask, Exodus, imToken, ...
Path listed as alternative is used by: Ledger, Coinomi.
Custom path enables BIP44 multiple accounts, testnet, Ethereum forks, etc... Any BIP32 path should work.
