We don't have any of this, as it's described.  Phil is working on
GnuCash using GDA, not wraping GnuCash as a GDA data-source.


I don't think the QofCollection or the "XML file" is the right thing to
expose, exactly ... in all integration cases, I think there's a set of
application constraints that need to be enforced; binding to the XML or
raw data is insufficient.  Note that this doesn't preclude some use of
XML as the integration point.


I can see the abstract utility of having GnuCash data exposed via GDA,
but I note that no one has asked for that specifically ... it feels a
bit like a solution in search of a problem.  There are some known
integration requests (problems) that it could solve, so maybe it works
out, but the focus should be on solving the problems.
