exiting from gnome

So, If I understand this correctly, then I can't move to the PG backend
yet because it doesn't support all my needs - scheduled transactions
being one of the most important needs on my list...

I know that I may sound a bit like a thorn in the side, but I try to
bring to the table a sense of how users who would be migrating from
Quicken would expect things.  Derek - I agree that migrating to PG would
be a good idea, but is it easy?  Does someone have to know how to manage
PG to get it to work?  This is a valid concern for Quicken users who
would consider migrating.  Also, how is the PG database backed up? 
Quicken makes its backups nearly automatic and a non-issue.  A simple
click on OK and your backup is made.

As we all know, there is a price for simplicity.  The question is, do we
want to go that route?
