Cool about the importer changes, I look forward to seeing them when the
code makes its way to my gnucash stability zone.

And good suggestions, thanks.

In the end, the suggestion to search in order to get a register window
with just those transactions, then to refine the search to the
(initially) same set by specifying the incorrect account allowed very
efficient copying and pasting.  So the initial need is past.

Point well taken.  I'll have a think and file a bug.
