I'd argue account migration is better handled with external tools rather then building it into the client (at least for the scope of SchildiChat), since it's not client-specific and not standardized. Third party tools exist, like this one: https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration (disclaimer: I didn't try it so can't tell how well it works)

It only allows you to migrate Old and new accounts that are on the same homeserver matrix.org

There's a checkbox "Old and new accounts are on the same homeserver" that you can uncheck, and matrix.org is written in editable text fields, so looks to me like it should be possible with any reachable servers.

https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration That's a good way to get your account details stolen
