If you are synchronizing using HBCI or importingg using CSV you could script
rules in the editor of jGnucashLib.
Every time it finds a transaction that does not match any
rule it asks if you want to create one in an editor that pops up instantly
with the full power of Javascript (manually LOTS of other scripting-languages
are supported) with syntax-highlighting, examples and the ability to test-run
your rule.
Other data-sources/formats for transactions can be easily written to support
the same using the well documented plugin-interface.

...just a nice, well written tool to automate such tasks.
