What is the use case for being able to configure the maximum file age?

Seems like the error message here should be something like "there is no fee estimates file" instead of "failed to read" ?

My note was for other devs. Based on your comments, you want to get a visual distinction on addresses owned by the signer wallet in the dialog. Which is doable and not hard to do.
My comment was just referring to the `IsMine(addr)` usage instead of the `IsChange(addr)`. Which fulfills the required purposes in the same way (and also accepts external addresses which is more accurate).

The drawback of such an approach is that it creates additional files in the source tree.

I'd prefer the pointer type to do not bother about lifetime of variables that were used for assigning.

> Why is it safe to use a reference type here?

I wouldn't call it "safe", since in general pointers and references in C++ are pretty dangerous, but as long as the notifications object is destroyed after the last notification is sent, there is not a bug. Could add a comment to the `ChainstateManagerOpts` struct to make this explicit, saying the notifications option is mandatory and the object lifetime needs to be at le

Right. But that is not the case for the `notifications` variable in: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/d96c82a76775b1a41c098e6af60130fbdbba9975/src/init.cpp#L1022-L1029

I'd agree with you if we passing a string or some other passive data structure as an option to the kernel. Better to just use copy/move/reference counts to get the options struct to manage the memory rather than worry about lifetime of external variables.

But `kernel::Notifications` option is not just a passive set-and-forget option because it actively receives callbacks from the kernel

That code looks safe to me, but is there a bug?

It definitely is verbose and duplicative, and probably the repeated parsing could be removed later with a refactoring.

thanks fixed with
```
LogPrintf("Flushed fee estimates to %s.", fs::PathToString(m_estimation_filepath.filename()));
```
so as to get the filename only not the dir

Suggested documentation since it's not immediately obvious why this is necessary.
```suggestion
# This allows `test_runner.py` to work from an out-of-source build directory using a symlink,
# hard link or a copy on any platform. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27561.
sys.path.append(tests_dir)

You're right, I can't find a way to install the package without it affecting the source tree in one way or another. So the current approach is probably the best approach.
