[GNC] Mystery per-security Opening Balances accounts appearing

[peterb]

I've been using Gnucash for well over a year and a half.  Sometime within
the past few months, I have seen a number of completely empty Opening
Balances equity accounts opening themselves for certain securities that I
own.  They are always denominated in the currency of the security; so for
example I have one right now:

These accounts have no balance, no transactions in them, and *to the best
of my knowledge* have never had a transaction in them.
I have asset accounts for about 75 securities, but only see this for around
10 of my securities.  Most of them were acquired after starting to use
GnuCash, so the top-level Equity:Opening-Balances account would not have
been involved at all.

(1) Has anyone else seen this?
(2) What gives?

Thanks!

Peter
