You're not the first to request that feature:

  https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2015-August/061582.html

I'd also like such a feature.  As things are now, I create 2 subaccounts
for a bank account, one subaccount called pending, the other called
done.  The pending is for checks written, the done is for checks
cleared.  When a check clears, I transfer from pending to done; hence,
when all checks clear, the pending has 0.0 balance.

This requires double entries, but it's easier for me to follow.
