Implement lock/unlock mechanism

thomas-nguy opened this issue · 1 comments

In the context of exposing the keyring in a rpc endpoint (for transaction signing) it would be nice to add the ability to lock or unlock the keyring securely.

one could also specify the duration of the unlock so that only during this timeframe, access to the keyring is possible

(for ref lockAccount and unlockAccount in ethereum rpc endpoints)

@mtibben is that something that we could contribute to the codebase?
