[GNC] Bulk moving transactions

[David T.]

If you search for these transactions or filter them in the (wrong, 
problematic) register, it is simple enough to merely change the 
erroneous Transfer account and tab off the specific line. This will 
change the entry, which will instantly remove it from the current view, 
since the split that anchors the transaction to the current (wrong) 
register no longer exists. You can power through hundreds of such 
transactions this way in a matter of minutes. At least, I can.
