### Description

When a user creates multiple fiat or altcoin accounts it creates usability problems. 

Bisq could make a the proposed changes below to allow traders to optimize their fiat or altcoin accounts for increased usability. 

This would increase usability, facilitating traders to add more accounts to the platform and and in turn has a positive impact on liquidity. The more multiple fiat or altcoin accounts someone has the more options they have to trade.

I am hoping these suggestions are all low hanging apples :apple::apple::apple:


#### Version

1.4.2

### Examples and suggestions

***

#### National currency account screen

![National currency account page](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/66367547/99932444-fde14f80-2d4f-11eb-8de1-6ed40f9cfe00.png)

Switching being national currency accounts becomes unusable/difficult when the account selected has multiple lines of information.

`Suggestion - There is lots of space on the right. I would suggesting using a wo column layout (account info on the right).
`
***

#### Select trading account - in Buy / Sell A

![buy and sell](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/66367547/99932567-5add0580-2d50-11eb-9e97-a3c07148ea23.png)

The trading account field is too short for payment account names.

`Suggestion - Treble the size of the field (you can see from the image below, even doubling it would be too short for Revolut)
`

***

#### Select trading account - in Buy / Sell B

![select trading account](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/66367547/99932698-c1622380-2d50-11eb-90bb-91dcd20fa3b2.png)

If you have more than a scrollable window of account types this field becomes messy quickly.

`Suggestion - alphabetize list. It would also be good if the client discounted payment options based on selected currency. For example in the list above only two of the account types shown is able to make / take offers of the currency selected 
`

***

#### Manage accounts


![manage accounts](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/66367547/99932891-5533ef80-2d51-11eb-8e11-5bbd85a0dcaf.png)

Fiat and altcoin accounts accounts get messy when more than a scrollable windows worth of accounts are added. 

`Suggestion - alphabetize list. I would also add 25% to the field width. You can see Revolut being cut off again.
`

***

#### Allow renaming of 'account name' field

![selected account](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/66367547/99932979-95936d80-2d51-11eb-9c8c-61bb4ad85a2b.png)

Traders are unable to edit the 'account name' field. NB: The account name field is the local nickname given to the account. it is different from the Account owner full name field. I assume this information is only stored locally on the traders client.

`Suggestion - allow traders to edit 'account name' for fiat and altcoin accounts. There are lots of reasons a trader might want to edit account nickname. Practicing good account management being the major use I can think of.
