Export recovery phrase 12 words?

[GaelicGabe]

I don't see any feature for getting your 12 word recovery phrase, that seems like an essential feature when the target-audience is people who quickly want to create a wallet but might later want to move to another more secure wallet software. Obviously one can always send the funds to the new wallet but simply exporting the words shouldn't be a problem, should it?

@GaelicGabe Wallets that operate with a 12-word phrase start with the 12 words, and then use those to generate your private key. If you just have the private key, it is not possible to turn it back into 12 words.

Coinb.in takes your email address and password, and uses those to generate your private keys. Therefore, there are no 12 words associated with your wallet. The only way to migrate to another wallet would be to import your private key itself, which is accessible under the "keys" tab.
