Thanks; here goes on gnucash-devel ...
People on gnucash-user frequently ask questions like "how can I do
so-and-so to all transactions matching so-and-so".
It seems to me that it should be quite easy to use the Scheme
interface to the Engine and/or Query API to write Scheme code to do
this kind of thing; the difficulty is, how is it possible to hook new
code like this into the Gnucash GUI, so that one can select the
required operation from a menu.
Is this possible? (Ideally, in 1.6.4, so I can start playing with
it without an upgrade!)

Neil
