I'm trying to understand how do you this. Let's say you have a simple
transaction:
TXN(USD) Debits Credits
Cash(USD) $100
Cash(EUR) EUR65
What would your scrubber do? Note that there is no gain or loss in
this transaction by itself. The gain/loss only occurs when I move
back to USD with a second transaction in the opposite direction.

When I first did this I was having trouble getting it to print the
symbol in non-focus but print without the symbol in focus. And the
split was still printing the 'amount', not the 'value', but it was
always converting to the local (register) currency. Still, I agree,
I think users might want (and NEED) to see (or modify) both the
amount and the value.
