My ideal would be for GnuCash to look for account files in the current
directory, if there is only one then open that one, if there are more
then offer me a list to choose from.


Are you serious? Assume this was a different application, say a "word processor". You are saying that when you started the word processor you would want to search the "current directory" (we'd need to come back to discuss what THAT might mean) and:

if there was only one file in that directory which the application COULD open open that one, else if more than one present a selection list? How about if there didn't happen to be any?

Yes of course, --nofile means just that, don't open any (the application simply starts at a place allowing you to open the file of your choice.

I believe what you want (should perhaps request) if that is the case, is a DIFFERENT runtime parameter that causes the behavior " open the file name supplied instead of the last one opened. POSSIBLY this could be as simple as the behavior "if a file name is supplied as parameter, open that instead of last one open"
