I added 2 pictures to describe what I think will be the simple and easiest to use way to add support for BIP38 addresses. As far as the code go, you just need to first decode the BIP38 encryption locally using a simple client side javascript and then process the decrypted key the same way you would handle and otherwise unencrypted private key.

I’ve long since forgotten the issues we encountered with this before we pull it - have we overcome those challenges, and if so, when might we see this re-introduced?
