## Hidden profiles
Nothing about profiles is encoded in the derivation, so the wallet holds nothing
that would disclose a hidden profile. The seed is the device's: whoever unlocks
any profile can export the phrase and derive every name key, hidden profiles
included. A key per profile rather than per device is what would change that.
A hidden profile should not register a name yet. The seed is the device's, so
whoever unlocks any profile can derive every name key. Beyond that, a name is
written into the profile's own row and listed device-wide, and hidden profiles
are a view filter rather than encryption, so the binding is readable beside it.
Nothing in the wallet prevents it, and closing it is work in the profiles and in
the name record rather than here.
