Summary0011210: Wallets must highlight / warn about use of untrusted exchanges [meta]
DescriptionIt just happened to me trying to send some TOPS/CHF (real money as of exchange.taler-ops.ch) that I managed to pick the CHF currency for use with exchange.stage.taler-ops.ch, which is not real, but test money.

I suggest there's a field which allows a Taler Wallet to mark money as test money in a visible way; this could be an attribute in /config of the exchange.

Well, Vlada had something in her designs about unofficial/unapproved/untrusted exchanges that were supposed to be highlighted as such. this shouldn't go in to /config, but simply the master offline keys of 'approved' exchanges should be baked into the wallets. So this AFAIK is purely a question of wallets implementing the design.
