Well, putting transaction attachment files into subdirectories under the
attachment root won't work —

I can assure you from experience that it works fine when the book file
remains on a single computer. It even works fine when the book file and
associated transactions directory reside in a per-year Finances
directory, and the entire book file and transactions directory get
copied forward each year to the new per-year Finances directory.
