The title. Currently its very unclear what the password for the key generated from gaiad init is. Only way I know of to get the key is to use account recovery. Preferably this could even be shown in the UI.

Which format are you thinking and when do you need to use the validator key in those format?

gaiad tendermint show_validator show the node's pubkey in cosmosvalpub... format, which can be used for staking. So the primary use case is sufficiently covered?

I think it speeds up testing things, since when you create a new local testnet, only the validator's key has stake.
EDIT: I am talking about for the cosmosaccaddr that gets created in gaiacli keys list, under the provided name
