Please consider making a 5.10 release

[John Ralls]

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Release_Schedule

You can use a flatpak nightly build (see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak#Nightly_Test_Versions_at_gnucash.org) in the meantime, or adjust your script call session.load() immediately after creating the session.

Regards,
John Ralls
