You are wanting two different views (reports) into the same set of 
transactions. I ran into similar needs, and wrote a plugin to rename 
accounts, that I turn on or off depending on what kind of reporting I want. 
In your first and second examples, you'd turn on (or off) the following 
renames using the plugin:

1. Assets:House:Capital-Improvements -> Expenses:House:Appliances
2. Liabilities:Mortgage -> Expenses:Mortgage:Principal

Turning them on gives you the cash flow view, and without the plugin, you 
get the tax view. Does that help?
