[GNC] Partial use of reconciliation

I've never used reconciliation because I get real-time transactions from
all my credit cards and my bank, so if there's something wrong I deal
with it before the statement arrives.

But recently I realized there's one _piece_ of reconciliation I'd like
to use in my bank accounts: cleared (c) versus not cleared (n). I think
it would be useful to get a list of uncleared checks, deposits, and
transfers from time to time which I can do with a filter.

But ... I've got over 7 years of data in my book, so clearing all those
items individually would be quite a job. I know I can filter by date as
well as not-cleared status, but I wonder if there's any shortcut to
clearing a lot of transactions at once.

For instance, it looks like I can treat everything before this year as a
single statement and just bulk-reconcile it; that would leave me only
this year's transactions (about 100 of them) to mark as cleared. Any
reason not to take that approach, or is there a better way?
