I'm glad we're getting temporarily rid of stealth addresses so we can focus on usability and adoption (since stealth addresses are useless without wide adoption anyway). However my wallet is still doing the transaction scanning every time I import a wallet file, and it seems like it has to do this before it'll recognize any funds sent to an imported address, even when they are sent directly to the public key with xchain.info. I can see the transaction on http://xchain.info/ but can't see it in my wallet after I successfully imported the electrum wallet that the BTC was sent from.

Will it be possible to get this to work like bitcoin in time for launch?
