On your second point, there’s also  menu option Transaction-> Cancel Transaction to undo any unwanted changes. 

Cheers.

Now that V5.0 offers choices when you start typing in the description, I find errors in spelling and other differences in the way I've entered names.  I try to clean these up, but sometimes there are n excess of a hundred, because they were repeated when earlier versions showed suggestions.  In order to eliminate V5.0 offering this bad spelling along with the proper spelling the incorrect spelling needs to be changed.  It would be helpful if Gnucash offer a llokup and replace function.  I haven't found one, am I missing it or doesn't it exist.  If not I will suggest it for a future enhancement.

While on the subject of enhancements, It would be helpful to have an undo and redo function as in Libre Office and many other spreadsheet programs.  I have sometimes accidentally changed a transaction or eliminated what is in a field and would like to exit the transaction with no changes.  Is there a way to do that now?


Thank You,
