[GNC] Hidden Accounts

[David T.]

That's the behavior since 2006. I never paid attention to the dialog, which is incorrect. To hide the account in the transfer drop down, you do have to set it as a Placeholder as well. There's a bug about this that has a long discussion about it. I can't find it right now.
