The larger issue here is that the wallet was built in a very similar way to many crypto wallets. They sort of sell the fact that private keys are not stored in a central DB as a silver bullet for decentralization. But since the private keys are copied into memory, and the software is automatically updated, the location of the key storage becomes irrelevant.
The only real way to keep your keys safe is in a hardware based solution that has been audited by multiple parties. Our credit cards have that level of security, crypto wallets need at least that much.
