Customized saved-reports file per gnucash file (i.e. per company)

[Carsten Rinke]

Hi Ben,

what do you mean by machine specific?

If you transfer your gnucash data file between machines, I thought it 
should also possible to transfer the saved-reports-2.x file between the 
machines.
Agreed, a combined file would make the transfer handling easier, but if 
you keep in mind always to transfer both files, it should work already now.

BTW: The accounts are stored by ID, and I am not aware that this can be 
switch somehow -> I would not recommend tweaking.
