This is the reason that seeds across desktop and mobile devices would never restore to the same keypair. This function was there from the initial messenger days and with further discussion with Maxim, we deemed calling this function an unnecessary step for generating a keypair. There are no security implications for this change as we generate keypairs the exact same way as Signal does.
The biggest downside to this change however is that if you try to restore a desktop device with a seed from before this change, that seed will generate a completely different key pair and thus a different session ID.
This will only affect users who plan to restore any device from the seed of a desktop device before this change.

Use emojijs for replacing unicode with image tags for display. We were
already using it to replace colons with unicode. Additionally it has
a companion data repo that is kept up to date with images from all
the common image sets.

Add db adapter support for clean cursor termination when passing
options.index and options.limit together. Previously this would cause a
crash because options.conditions was undefined.
