[GNC] Accidentally Typing in the Transfer Column

[Adrien Monteleone]

I'll add that I did not test a brand new non-auto-filled transaction, 
but I seem to recall once having it commit as-is (with the inevitable 
Imbalance assignment) on an errant click into another transaction.

While I use standard memos that auto-complete about 95% of my splits' 
account assignments for me, I don't think that is what kept restoring 
the account name when I clicked out, because I also tested changing the 
memo text to jibberish and it still reverted.

Regards,
Adrien
