I have not found this to be the case with 2.4.11 anyway.  After you get
rid of all of the fields then you can right click on the split and
select delete transaction and this will get rid of the split.  I found
this when I was going through getting rid of Imbalances.  I found
transactions in the imbalance account with no associated amount because
the imbalance had already been fixed but deleting the transaction did
completely get rid of the split line.
