Indeed you are right, when I select a liabilities account, I get a payable 
aging report as well. When I select an expense account, the "Account report" 
menu returns a transaction report. Pretty inconsistent and confusing if you 
ask me.

But you can get to the transaction report by another means as well:
- Select Reports->Transaction report
- Edit the options:
  * In the Accounts tab, select your MrSoSoAccount
  * In the Display tab, select the columns you would like to view
  * In the General tab, set your reporting range (you can use either
    absolute dates or relative periods for that)
  * tweak any other option you like, perhaps you need to change the sorting
    and grouping

=> That should give you all transactions in an account in a printable form.
