There is already a feature to open the transaction for editing in that
window.  When I want extra information without bothering to open for
editing, I add something to the description.  Sometimes I add the source
bank account name or other details to the description.  That works
nicely for me.

Also, there are several other requests for changes such as providing a
button to "Enter Next Instance Now" and to hide transactions that will
not be affected from the Since Last Run... window that are also worth
considering.
