1. Please file an enhancement request in bugzilla for GnuCash to warn that
a destination account is flagged as a placeholder.
Perhaps change the line color to yellow. I think red is currently used to
show the match algorithm doesn't know which account to assign.
a) More fully describe what you want to happen. You want a warn, not a
disallow, yes?
b) Properly just an enhancement request. Bugs are things that are wrong
<not "some of us would want different behavior">
c) Things like this need to be discussed by a user group (volunteers)
and not going straight to developers. The job of developers is to
correctly implement what it has been decided a system is supposed to do,
not to decide what it is supposed to do. Useful if that user's group has
access to a "business analyst" to keep asking the group "what about this
special case; what about that exception?" <<end users will not think
about special cases and exceptions all by themselves>>
In my working days, THIS phase (formal definition of what system is
to do) was budgeted about 20% of total project people time.
