Questions about OFX import

[Niranjan Rao]

Greetings,

This question is mostly applies to investment accounts. OFX imports for 
checking/credit card accounts do work fine for me.

When I download ofx transactions for investment accounts, gnucash 
prompts me with the message to the effect "Please select or create an 
appropriate GnuCash account for Stock account....".

This becomes a long, very error prone as I have to navigate through 
account hierarchy (everything is minimized when the screen comes up) to 
find the right account where transaction should go.

Questions:

1. In the select account screen, is it possible to show the accounts 
which match the "type/symbol" of the account in different color? When we 
create the account for security, it has the security/currency 
information. OFX file has symbol and name. If gnucash can match the 
symbol and/or name to the accounts and highlight those accounts, it will 
be much easier to identify the target account.

2. On the same screen, is it possible to display the base account where 
the ofx transaction started from in different color and at least that 
part of the tree hierarchy expanded. I have, for example, "My 401K" as 
investment account and securities I have invested, as child account of 
this.

3. I read a thread about Gnucash "learning" from ofx transactions few 
days back. Will gnucash eventually start remembering how I imported this 
or do I need to keep doing this every time?
