Bug in QIF Import?

Hi all,

I think I found a minor bug in the QIF Import feature.

When I import a qif file which contains a category/account which didn't
previously exist, and is the child of an existing account, the account
type ends up getting created incorrectly.

For example, given the hierarchy:

    Liabilities
	Credit Cards

and the qif code:

    D01/01/01
    N1012
    PSears National Bank
    T-30.73
    LLiabilities:Credit Cards:Sears
    ^

When I import this, I end up with a new hierarchy:

     Liabilities 2
	 Credit Cards 2
		Sears

because of a "conflict".  Additionally, this hierarchy is of type 'Expense'
not Liability or Credit Card.

Seeya,
Paul
