Thanks for the SQL stuff!  This looks, indeed, useful for export of data
and later analysis with other means (e. g., LibreOffice as you mention it).

My own route, however, was to implement a custom report in Scheme.  This
makes accessing the report quick and easy, and was an interesting
refreshment of programming Scheme for me.  (As well as some Gnucash
concepts.)

It works already, but is not yet cleaned up.  I plan to submit a pull
request against Gnucash with my patch once it is ready.  I think that
this approach complements your export SQL nicely for different usage
patterns.

Yours,
Daniel
