I use a split transaction for my mortgage payment that takes care of principle, 
interest, and escrow all at once.

I haven't used the budgeting feature yet, but I use both expenses and cash flow 
reports to get a mostly complete financial review every month.

I came up with an idea.  I created and asset account called Mortgage
Payment, and do a transfer of my monthly mortgage payment to that account.
In that account register, I do 2 transactions, one that pays the mortgage
and one that pays the principal.  Need to tinker and see how this works for
budgeting.
