Is there a way to "Clear all contents/delete all transactions" for a fresh start?

Heh, strictly speaking, the accounts are part of the contents so clear all 
contents should remove those as well ;)

But for what you want, you can try
File -> Export -> Export Accounts.

This will create a new file with only your chart of accounts in it, no 
transactions or anything else.
