[GNC] Size of description column not shrinkable?

[Stephen]

In my limited experience it seems that the column widths are different 
for each account in the .gcm file. There does not seem to be a "uniform" 
account setting. Furthermore, the account names are not listed in the 
.gcm file but can be found by saving the .gnucash file in XML format and 
opening in a text editor (Notepad) and saving away from your data. BTW, 
my .gnucash file needed to be saved as non-compressed (General tab in 
Preferences) to then be savable as an XML.

A good description of this process can be found in the Archives [GNC]

It would be nice if GnuCash would allow for a uniform account column 
width setting but IRL "things" aren't uniform.
