I was thinking the other day on how to implement an a/r a/p register.

One thing that the register needs is a per-transaction 'date due'
field. (yes, there are other possible sol'ns but bear with me).

Well, we could hard-wire the date-due field into a new account type a/r
a/p.  Alternately, we could specify the register layout with kvp data
associated with the account. 

There's a certain power to being able to do this. Different specific 
applications seem to want slightly different registers.  e.g. The folks
at SuSE think german home banking requires several new 'id' fields that
belong in the register.  The document-management guy might want a little 
check-box next to each split that opens an image viewer for associated
scanned documents... etc.  This could potentially solve a lot of pending 
custom-register requests.

Food for thought ...
