FWIW, I *think* things are working for me by using both:
1) The {USD} cost hack to pass cost basis info
2) The ZeroSum account pattern to decouple the outgoing half of the
transfer from the incoming. I haven't actually plugged in RedS's plugin
but the balances in the intermediating
virtual "buffer" accounts show me how close I am to properly accounting for
both the incoming and outgoing amounts.
