I agree that this feature would really be useful. As of now, no such 
feature exists or is planned, yet. Martin Preuss pointed out that this 
should indeed just handled inside the application (as opposed to 
handling it in the OpenHBCI library), which means "just" some code would 
need to be added to gnucash. I can't do that -- I'm busy with other 
things. If you want to give it a try: The HBCI transactions, as defined 
in openhbci/transaction.h, is prepared and executed in gnucash's source 
file src/import-export/hbci/dialog-hbcitrans.c (execution in line 272). 
You can simply add some printf's there that print out the data that 
existed in the HBCI_Transaction. Don't hesitate to ask me if you have 
further questions in this regard -- but please understand that I cannot 
work on this by myself for the time being.
