David,
You have to look at the use cases of a wide range of users Some may have
multiple vehicle and want to track expenses separately for each vehicle for
example. being able to name the accounts the same for each vehicleis a great
benefit They would want be be able to create 2 or more subaccounts
Yeah, I actually don't care about the account existing; it's easy enough to
correct the problems, which, quite frankly, are more trouble to avoid than fix.
So, I'm happy just to let it be there, which cuts down on my having to alter my
CoA.
And as I have noted time and time and time again in
Yes, David, That is why YOU would want the imbalance account functionality.
However, other people work differently. Some people have no need for that
functionality and don’t like the creation of extra unneeded accounts. It would
be nice if GnuCash worked well for everyone instead of forcing ever

Michael,
I expect gnucash should know the "full name" of the imbalance account BECAUSE
THAT'S WHAT IT DID BEFORE 4.5.

Since you bring up the concept of reserved names, perhaps any account name
that Gnucash creates probably should be a reserved name so the entire
argument about creating accounts with the same name should be moot. Then
the previous behavior of allowing it to be moved would not be an issue.
On Wed,
As David pointed out in his very first post of the other thread. GnuCash
has removed an existing function without warning. Some of us use it and
want it back.

I am just an uninterested observer of this discussion of the location of the
Imbalance account(s). It has never bothered me. But Michael's suggestion seems
like a good one for those that are bothered by it. Then if the account appears,
you know there are some unbalanced transactions. If there ar
