I noticed that when running from source on macOS, the OS menubar has an "About Python" menu item,
instead of an "About Electrum" menu item. I tried to fix that by this, but actually it is not working :P
Nevertheless, this looks useful at least on Linux and Windows. E.g. when instantiating a new dialog
without an explicit title, the qt application name is used as default.
The application name, without this change AFAICS was already "Electrum" when running any of the binaries.
However when running from source, it was in some cases "python" or "run_electrum" or even "electrum-4"
(depending on OS and how the main script is started).
Now it is consistent -- except on macOS it still is not, as there it really wants to look for a .plist...
In some cases this makes it much easier to successfully scan a QR code.
I was trying to scan a PSBT using a laptop camera from my phone screen for 2 minutes, until I realised the screen brightness was the issue. o.O
- between the Back btn and the Next btn, the latter should have priority for focus
- but if the user needs to enter the wallet password, that textedit should have focus

The history tab would show an incorrect feerate for partial/unsigned (local) txs,
if they had any p2sh/p2wsh txins. We would just guess the script is p2wpkh, and
use that for the size calc. Now with calling add_info_from_wallet, the correct
size is used to calculate the feerate.
(The gui tx dialogs call add_info_from_wallet independently, so the size/feerate
shown there were already correct.)
The messages are sometimes logged and sometimes shown to the user,
- for logging we might not want to truncate or have higher limits,
- but when shown to the user, we definitely want to truncate the error text.
It is simplest to just do the truncation here, at the lowest level.
Note that we usually prepend the error text with a header e.g. "[DO NOT TRUST THIS MESSAGE]"
and if the error text is too long, this header at the beginning might get "lost" in some way.
Hence we should truncate the error text.

Some functions have an argument named "seed_type" in which it was annoying to call the seed_type() fn.
(especially for functions inside the same module)
- the unlock command was replaced by an option to load_wallet,
because some applications (the swapserver plugin) need to be
executed with an unlocked password. Now the swapserver plugin
waits until the wallet is unlocked.
- wallet.unlock now checks password unconditionally, see #8799
