In further testing I found and reported via bug 699790 my findings
regarding anomalous behavior under certain circumstances when editing
multi-line split transactions.  Additionally, I have experienced crashes
when attempting to edit scheduled transactions and transactions in the
account plus sub-accounts view, which I believe are known issues.
The progress  to date on this release is very nice to see.  I want to
see more.
