[GNC] How to create a Chronological Income Report subtotaled by Payee?

Hi all,

I'm still learning my way around GnuCash when it comes to creating 
reports.  And I'm a bit lost as to how to create an Income Report that 
shows a list of all income transactions for a given time period for a 
selected income account.  Getting the bottom line total income is easy.  
Where I need help is getting a detailed report of all the income 
transactions in date order where those transactions are subtotaled by 
payee.  That's the hard part -- at least for me.

I just re-read this preceding paragraph of mine; and it sounds confusing 
even to me.  Let me try asking it differently.

Let's say I want to get a list of all interest payments that I received 
from 3 banks (Banks A, B, C) over the past 3 months (Jan, Feb, Mar).  
For simplicity, we'll say that all three banks pay interest on the 5th 
day of each month.  Here's the layout of the report that I would be 
hoping to create.

==========
Bank Interest Income Report (Jan thru Mar)

Bank A
   Jan 5   $12.30
   Feb 5   $11.20
   Mar 5  $10.10
Bank A Subtotal: $33.60

Bank B
   Jan 5   $15.00
   Feb 5   $14.30
   Mar 5  $11.10
Bank B Subtotal: $40.40

Bank C
   Jan 5   $10.60
   Feb 5   $9.00
   Mar 5  $12.30
Bank C Subtotal: $31.90

Total Bank Interest Income: $105.90
==========

Is there a way to create a report similar to this kind of layout 
directly within GnuCash?  If there is, I haven't found it yet.  If not, 
does anyone have some advice about how to get a similar printable report 
some other way using the GnuCash data?  Any help here would be welcome.

Thanks,
Tom
