I wouldn't be in favor of a blinking tab. And if it were implemented,
I'd for sure want to turn it off. But there might be some other
effective method.
Other than what was described in the bug report about directing you back
to the uncommitted transaction explicitly, I can't see a path to
I had sql once but you moved me to xml. Is there an easy way to go back to

sql saves uncommitted transactions?
It seems simple enough to have attributes in XML to hold the uncommitted
information beside the original information, so you can always save the entire

it before wandering off. If the system is rebooted or gnucash is killed for
batch stock price updates, these modifications are lost, even
