I think that most of us are here because no other software meets our
overall needs better than GnuCash.  Thus  we are not inclined to
recommend another package that may be better in some aspect but worse in
others.  It meets my needs in each of the areas that you have named.

Sometimes certain activities initially seem awkward, but once we learn
how they work we see that there is a method to the madness and the
bottom line result is correct if not in the form we initially expected. 

The developers are very open to accepting help when we are able to
assist them.  If GnuCash does not suit your needs, ask them how you can
help to improve it.
