Hmm, my mail client insists on munging part of my original message on re-
sending, so here's a manually edited one with my full comment...

On a tangent, why does gnucash require a symbol key ? The full hash keys also 
have the symbol name, albeit in a weird format that can be converted into a 
proper two-dimensional hash without too much trouble. I'm doing that in my 
work in progress branch:
https://github.com/gjanssens/gnucash/blob/
c847fa3aa4a5f90fa4dbf93673d3668e9ddc9e22/libgnucash/quotes/finance-quote-
wrapper.in#L107

What would be the potential issues if we decided to make the symbol key 
optional, assuming we also fix the code to use the symbol part of the hash 
keys of course ?
