The existence of an Imbalance account means you have an error in a
transaction. So you should fix it and empty it..

Hello,
I have noticed a new behavior in regards to the automatic creation of
entries to Imbalance-XXX (in my case, Imbalance-USD).
When I first started using Gnucash, I found the creation of a top level
imbalance account to be additional unwanted clutter to my Chart of
Accounts. I found, by sheer coincidence, that I could move the top level
account into a different area of my CoA (in my case, a top level
placeholder called Special Accounts, which includes a number of these types
of accounts), and Gnucash would use that newly-situated Imbalance-XXX
account for all new automatically-created imbalance entries.
Alas, this is no more. In my most recent session, I have found that Gnucash
has decided that it must ALWAYS use a top level Imbalance account for these
entries. I find the concomitant clutter of my books annoying.
This is disappointing. Does anyone know why this behavior has changed, and
is there any point to submitting a bug request to have the previous
behavior restored?
