I found what I feel is a bug - see attachment. It's basically the same as

https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779888

reported by Christopher Lam, and marked as fixed. But I don't think it is
fixed, so I added a comment.

There's a link to another bug on that bug, but the link points to nowhere
useful.

I disagree with the comment that Find by Value should be removed - I use
that quite a bit.

I don't know how unusual my company is, being small (1 employee == me), but
dealing in multiple currencies. 90% of what the company sells is exported
outside the UK, and a reasonable fraction of those buyers only want to pay
in their local currency. Or in the case of a Polish company, wanted to pay
in USD, despite the fact that I offered to accept their local currency
(zloty).

Recently I got chatting to a guy in a pub in England who claimed he was a
chartered accountant. I have no reason to disbelieve him. He said that I
should not be invoicing companies in any currency other than GBP, and in
his opinion I was breaking the law by doing so. Yet I discovered later
after checking, our own government website clearly states* "You can invoice
in any currency for the goods and services that you supply" *

I seem to have found a few bugs related to using multiple currencies. I
guess if there are not that many people using them, bugs are not going to
be discovered so readily as they otherwise would.
