Hi Christoph,

I remember this change was discussed in the past. I didn't remember 
whether it was actually implemented. It appears it is.

So I looked it up. It was indeed implemented by Robert Fewell and 
committed by yours truly for gnucash 2.6 in this commit:
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/ef38df96a02027762978c0d79fc10d9225af4857
