I'm trying to transfer some accounts to a new wallet, with a sexier password. Is there some way to achieve this, especially via the GUI?
Why don't you simply change the password of your current wallet?
That's good advise, thanks. However, I do have an account with a name I'd like to retain, in a different wallet. It would be nice to consolidate wallets if possible.
First go to the account you want to transfer, permissions menu, copy both active and owner private keys (you have to click on the pub key and click show in both the active and owner permissions tab).
Then go to settings, wallet management console, and change the active wallet to the one in which you want to transfer the above account.
After that click on import keys and paste the two private keys (active and owner) that you copied in the first step
At this point you should have the account in this second wallet too.
NB: the brain key of the second wallet, will not recover the account imported in such a way, so make sure to do a backup of the wallet and do not relay only on the brain key.
Ps: I think the above issue could be "fixed" later if the Gui implements a method to generate new private keys
