Chris,

I'd be curious to see how this register implementation works.
There are still a couple of low-level bugs in the register-gnome
implementation I discovered recently:
   * You can't resize the gnucash window when a register is open
   * text selection doesn't work well if the text contains accented
chars
   * left-arrow + shift while attempting to select text creates unusual
behaviours
   * probable focus problem when using the account selection combo box 
   * impractical text justification for account names (you see the
beginning of the name, not the end that most of the time is the relevant
part, if you have nested accounts).
   * missing tooltips for long strings

I your implementation is advanced enough, it might be worth considering
if it is not a faster path to a robust implementation of the register.

Didier.
