You could create separate subaccount trees for the vested and unvested
portions.

401k
             vested    fund1
                       fund2


           unvested    fund1
                       fund2

As portions become vested you could transfer them across.

Instead of using an equity account you may want to use a tax-deferred
income account or two (vested and unvested). This will have some effect on
the default profit and loss reports which you may find undesirable. On the
other hand this gives you a "total compensation" picture of your income.
