In the US (no idea about other countries):

Put everything you own in the name of a living trust. You can still control the assets, or take them back out of the trust if you want.

Then your will names the living trust as the beneficiary. Your executor thus has access to all of it and you don't have to tell him/her about every single thing in advance.

But IANAL. I've probably left out a lot of details. See an estate lawyer.

Good for the stuff with legal identities like bank accounts and property. Useless for digital stuff.

You never know until you ask a lawyer. They're not as dumb as you think (and no, I'm not one).
