[GNC] Correcting reconciles

[David Carlson]

One more issue that I rarely see mentioned in these discussions about
reconciliation problems is that there are some cases where attempting to
correct an error in one account of a transaction can unreconcile a
different account in that same transaction.  At the moment I cannot
elaborate on a specific example, but I recall that has been a problem for
me  in the past.  I think it may be when I wanted to change the date,
description or the transaction number, which will affect all split lines in
the transaction.
