[GNC] Upcoming report deprecation

[D]

Adrien,

I'll note that Geert's proposal only requires the user to add a switch at run time--i.e., "gnucash --extra". There is no need for the prospective report writer to recompile.I

I’m in agreement there. If someone did take the plunge into scheme and they wanted to work on those particular reports, asking them to compile with flags isn’t a stretch for them at that point.

The less clutter and cruft the better, especially for new users.

Regards,
Adrien
