Method 4 (if/f you will be keeping four or more books* under gnucash)
     Ignore the problem of an extraneous file as it will go away once 
bumped from the least recently used list (max length 4). If you want it 
to go away immediately, create some other books even though not using 
them yet.

* Even with one organization there might be reasons for multiple books. 
In a business, often responsibility is delegated to lower employees (who 
have to have access to where they enter data but should not even be able 
to look at the main books --- thus the "receivables" clerk who sends out 
invoices and marks paid as payments arrive not authorized to look at 
"payroll". Or in my case keeping books for non-profits, a local might be 
assigned the running of the national gathering. Would need to share the 
"event books" with the national organization but might be no reason for 
the national to be able to look at the rest of the local's books.
