Provide an option to use either the privkey or ncryptsec. This approach can help prevent the user's wallet privkey from being exposed in case the main nsec is leaked.

good idea and I like the approach, this way a user can have a wallet that can hold funds, apps can see the balance, but they require explicit authorization from the user to spend from them. I.e. a user could have a user with 1k sats that all apps can spend from with no friction and a wallet with 100k sats that requires the user "unlocks" the wallet to spend from it.

Yes, this is really cool!
