[GNC] Multicolumn Custom Report: Transaction List Always Null?

I occasionally play with the Custom Multi-column report, and today 
notice that there seem to be no was to get data in any Transaction 
Report I add to it. I hasten to add that I notionally do understand how 
it works, it's just that no matter what settings I try it always shows 
the default "No Accounts Selected" panel.

Try for example (in GK 5.11+):

  * Reports > Multicolumn > Custom Multicolumn Report
  * (in empty report) Options > Contents > Transaction Report > Add>> > OK
  * (in created report) Edit report options > Accounts > Select All > OK

That's the simplest sequence to populate a simple Multicolumn report, 
but neither it nor any other settings I try every show any data.

Is this a known bug? Am I missing something simple?

Other reports I add to the Multi-column Report do seem to operate as usual.

Thanks as always for all help,

Paul
