Leading Zeros on Imported Check Number

[Doug Brown]

My apologies if this is answered elsewhere ... I couldn't find it.

When I import bank account transactions via a OFX import, check numbers 
are specified in the OFX file as:

<CHECKNUM>000089

and gnc imports the check number as "000089". I think of check numbers 
as being integers and it annoys me to see all those leading zeros in my 
account register. Is there any setting that will tell gnc to strip the 
leading zeros?

I could, of course, strip out the zeros in the ofx file before 
importing, but that an extra I would prefer to avoid.

tia,
