This method is deprecated in favor of the v2.0 get_private_keys method. The new method offers several advantages:
- No requirement to activate coins prior to private key export
- Support for Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) derivation paths with configurable account and address indices
- Batch export capabilities for multiple coins
- Enhanced protocol support including ZHTLC coins with viewing keys
