the chat app Signal makes you set a PIN for account recovery and, every once in a while, it shows a popup that basically says "we're testing to make sure you remember your PIN i wonder if people would stop losing their seeds if every once in a while, the wallet had a popup that said "what's your 15th word?"

Definitely want to make it a nonblocking exercise. If I'm out and about and don't have access to the secured storage of my seed phrase, I'd not want to be blocked from transacting. That said, it'd be a good way to exercise recovery process viability.

I think I've seen this done somewhere... Maybe it was just in a mockup.
