IMHO the "Open Subaccounts" should not be read only unless *EVERY*
account/subaccount is read-only.  When you "Open Subaccounts" it should
act just like the GL in terms of entering transactions, except it's only
showing the subset of transactions from the opened set of accounts.  The
Placeholder bit should only prevent you from selecting that account for
a transaction Split, but you shouldn't be limited in the accounts you
can select.

IMHO when you open subaccounts there does not need to be a "default"
account when you create a new account.  I think it's okay to require the
user to choose both the credit and debit accounts.  And indeed I dont
think you should be able to have a "basic" or event "auto split" ledger
mode in an Open Subaccounts view.
