Okay, two separate things: 1) the crash itself is eminently reproducible, nice core dump and stack trace, and I've submitted it (#797017) using GnuCash's bugzilla db. I wasn't sure whether to categorize it as "MacOS" or "QIF importer."
2) wrt the unreconciling, I was editing the other half of the transaction (not the reconciled entry) in the window created by an "Edit > Find ..." operation, and there's no warning dialog associated with this action (nor should there be, I claim). Unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce the bug that I reported. 3) However, I have discovered a potentially related issue, that may or may not be a bug. Specifically, if one edits a the reconciled portion of a transaction in a window created by an "Edit > Find..." operation, the reconciliation flag silently changes from 'y' to 'n' on that portion of the transaction, with no dialog. This behavior would be considered a bug, no? Many thanks for your prompt response!
