I am now running with the tree from 2005-10-31 (just before the switch 
to subversion) and yes, this problem is still around.

OK.  The new layout is much better and it works as expected.
However, the 'Create Automatically' option has a tool tip, the other 
options do not.  Is this intentional?
Also, it appears that none of the options (only the menu options of the 
Template) have keyboard shortcuts.

A new thing I ran into:  I'm unable to enter anything into the fields 
for 'Number of Occurrences' and 'Remaining Occurrences'.
I may not be using this properly though since I never did use it myself.

Yes, this is OK now.

Sorry, but what exactly do you mean when you say 'a script'?
I have no SX (deleted them all), I want to create a new one:
   Actions --> Scheduled Transactions
           --> Scheduled Transaction Editor
   Click 'New'
   Click in the Register templates and the date jumps back to 2004-01-01.

>>- Saving a new SX crashes GC.  

I had deleted all of my SX to test these things but now I'm unable to 
retest any of the other items I reported earlier since GC doesn't allow 
me to save a scheduled transaction without crashing.

Here is the backtrace from such a crash:
Continuing.
