I haven’t yet delved into my 2020 budget, but certainly, the lack of an overall 
total should be restored as it is critical to the budgeting process.

I consider this a regression of sorts. (in terms of reduced functionality, not 
necessarily, the return of a previously solved bug)

Was this an accident? Oversight? Intentional design?

Regards,
Adrien
