Describe the bug
If you add a custom RPC node, the addresses are always shown as they're ETH addresses.

To Reproduce

  1. Add a CUSTOM RPC node (e.g.: RSK public node https://public-node.testnet.rsk.co)
  2. Look at default address: checksum is not correct for RSK, because it's ETH checksum

Expected behavior
If network chainId is not an ETH one, it's better to see the address without checksum (lower case) instead of an address with a checksum which is not correct.

Browser details (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu - Linux
  • Browser Chrome
  • MetaMask 5.0.3

The ideal scenario would be to adopt EIP-1191. If not possible, showing non-checksumed addresses in these cases is better than current situation.
