[cost accounting]

I was using the term loosely, in the context of foreign currercies
for: "accounting for the cost of foreign currencies in order to 
calculate
gain/losses on dispositions". The work would also apply to
commodities/securities, though.

Re-reading your post at the top of this thread what is it that would be 
achieved by what you propose ?  <-- open question

If the gnc user has Trading accounts ON don't they have all the 
transactional information available to them to report on ? <-- is there 
something missing from what is recorded

I'm wondering if this isn't so much a new feature so much as a report 
that wants to be written ? <-- did you try to write a report and gave up
