[WSBAPT] Redacting Original Will or Filing under Seal

I have a new probate where the Will includes full account numbers of multiple accounts at various financial institutions, including several joint accounts held with surviving spouse.

It has been a couple of years since I last requested the filing of an original unredacted Will under seal (with a redacted one public in the file). In that case it was social security numbers of all the beneficiaries, and the Court was reluctant to sign my order, but did after some persuasion. Anyone with more recent experience with such a request, or other ideas for how to handle this sensitive information?
