One would think this could be set not by the name but by the
cell-layout definition.  I mean, somewhere you need to set that
	DATE_CELL ->
		Date widget
		xaccTransSetDateEnteredTS
		...

	DATE_DUE ->
		Date widget
		xaccTransSetDateDueTS
		...

It seems kind of silly to reference everything by name.  But
perhaps that's just me -- I guess it means you don't need
to maintain a bunch of structures all over the place.
