[GNC] Can not insert text on transaction after import QIF

[Christopher Lam]

Also there seems to be confusion.
CSV files and QIF files are quite different, and both have dedicated
importers.
Both may slow with large numbers of transactions to import, hence it's
always safer to import in chunks. Which ones are not functioning?
