Unfortunately, I don't think xPub is available for our signature scheme (cc @Wollac). |

Yes, xPub is defined for Bitcoin's bip-32 but not slip-10 with Ed25519 which is e.g. used in IOTA. There are some ideas how to implement a similar scheme, but nothing is standardized or vetted enough yet. |

Description
Generate a public key for a wallet that can be used to query nodes to show the available balance in an aggregated output.
Same as xPub key in many popular cryptocurrencies.
Motivation
It would make it easier to integrate IOTA wallets with tracker apps (eg.: cointracker.io). I'm sure there are plenty of other use cases as well.
Requirements
Write a list of what you want this feature to do.
Open questions (optional)
I assume it will also require some changes into the node software's API. Shall i create a FEATURE request there as well with a link to this issue?
Are you planning to do it yourself in a pull request?
No. Sorry, I don't have the time.
