Everything you've said above sounds great.  I *would* like to see the
capability to create a budget category w/o an associated account. Say,
perhaps, you want to see how your budget looks if you start saving to
purchase a new truck for which you don't have an account yet, or
something like that...

Also, I had envisioned duplicating the current accounts hierarchy to
display a budget category hierarchy.  Opening a budget for X timeframe
displays the Budget Categories tree.  Then opening a category brings up
a dialog where you edit the account relations, goal amount and/or period
amounts, etc.  Not the only way to do it, of course, just a suggestion
and what I thought would be easiest to implement.  I certainly am
interested in seeing what you have, though, and I'm *certain* we'll all
appreciate any working implementation!! ;)

I know I will!
