G R,

Could you perhaps add that info to the bug report on the documentation 
change?

https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798798

If this is verified as in some cases being needed to get those reports 
to behave with closing entries, that info can be included and/or it 
might expose a subsequent bug that someone might fix.

Regards,
Adrien
