Feedback about 2.7.8

Hi,

since 2.7.8 is deemed a release candidate I am giving it a try on MacOS High Sierra. 

here is my feedback so far:
It choked on one of my files, which worked fine with 2.6 and was probably created with 2.4 or even earlier.  There was an out-of range date in the price database which I corrected manually. But normal users would have been lost.
adding “EXTRA_ARGS=--nofile” to Library/Application\ Support/Gnucash/gnucashrc does not have any effect any more. 
Normal accounting with aqbanking and trading accounts seems to work fine. My reports are fine.
Finally I can change unreconciled splits in a transaction with reconciled splits again. Changing account or value of a reconciled split gives me the correct warning as needed. Yeah!
But I can change the description of a reconciled split without a warning. I need to file a bug report on that.
Fonts and icons are different - due to gtk3 - and not necessarily to my liking. I had customised .gtkrc-2.0.gnucash a bit and of course this does not work any more. Unfortunately I did not figure out how to customise gtk3 on MacOS. Any help would be appreciated

Besides the nitpicks above it looks pretty good. Thanks for all the good work!

Cheers,
Christoph
