the biggest issue is that there is no feedback when 
you make an error that prevents anything from loading 
at all. so you are not sure if you screwed up something 
basic or if your importer isn't working at all.

I agree, it would be nice to have a `--debug` or even `--verbose` flag to 
bean-extract or beangulp (neither of which I maintain) which would be 
passed down to the importer code, and inform you as to why something is not 
matching.

# header looks like: DATE,TRANSACTION 
ID,DESCRIPTION,QUANTITY,SYMBOL,PRICE,COMMISSION,AMOUNT,REG FEE,SHORT-TERM 
RDM FEE,FUND REDEMPTION FEE, DEFERRED SALES CHARGE 
# note that space on the beginning of that last field... 

which then needed the following to work: 

" DEFERRED SALES CHARGE":'defslschrg',

Yes, if one hasn't worked with csvs, this can be a tripping point. If you 
open the .csv in a plain text editor which displays the characters as they 
are (which I recommend), this will be apparent. Most spreadsheet editors 
and such won't show this.
