Private key export icon wasn't loading, no way to know it existed #542

So I just made a new account and went to export the private key and spent a mystifying 10 minutes looking at this screen trying to find how to get from the row of asterisks to the actual private key:

Later after I randomly reloaded I could see a tiny little copy icon to the left of the asterisked-out key, and I followed that and worked out how to do it. I think what's happening is that either the CSS or the font (?) being used to load the icon isn't loaded until late (to avoid blocking rendering, I guess?) which would be fine but for the fact that without the icon there's no way to use the feature.

I would suggest adding a text link to export the key so you're not relying on the icon.

The icon should always be there, but can fail to load due to a flaky connection. Here's what you should be seeing:

These copy inputs could be better, but I'm not sure I can solve the problem at the level of icons not appearing. I'm going to close this for now in favor of #543
