[GNC] Feature request - prevent a transaction with todays date

[David H]

Hi Christopher,

Yes this is a good idea, I have inadvertently updated the wrong date on a
txn that had already been reconciled a year or 2 ago and had to go looking
for it again to fix it up.  Are the existing warnings documented anywhere
in one place - will check the wiki and see if I can find them ?

Cheers David H.
