Since the Extension now supports both the generic and migration app there is no way to distinquish whether an account has the old bip32path or the new one which has the slip44 for only polkadot. Because of this we currently don't have a concrete way to allow the Allow use on any chain functionality for generic app accounts.

It would be nice to find a solution on how we can identify an account as a generic app ledger account, then allow the use of the generic chain feature.

Why not adding a isGeneric field to AccountJson?

We have thought about it, the one thing would be accounts that are already uploaded on the extension won't have that field it would only be accounts that are newly added.

Which is a small edge case - so it's definitely an option

I am unable to add both a Polkadot and a Kusama Ledger account using the same seed, simultaneously. Every time I need to switch chain, I need to reconnect the Ledger and re-add the account. I assume "Allow use on any chain" could probably fix this issue.
