Request: additional lists.

Hi,

I'm pretty new to accounting and taking an accounting course where we're
being taught a proprietary solution. I have chosen to take the chance to
practice using Gnucash, too, which has this far been pretty impressive for
every task we've had to work on.

There is a suggestion I'd like to make, though: When I try to find certain
elements (customers, invoices, jobs, vendors, bills, employees and expenses)
I only have two options: create a new one, or search an existing one.

Why not offer *a list* of the existing elements in these categories so that
the user can keep track of the whole list? Why not use the search as a
filter, so that if it's left blank you get the whole list instead of not
getting any results? Why not have that list as a tab (e.g. a customers tab),
same as you have an accounts tab?

I think that particular part of the program would be much easier to use that
way.

Thanks for your attention,

David Prieto.
