I think that's somewhat why Linas introduce the Orphan-<currency>
accounts, to make sure every transaction is balanced. But it's
definitely good to know.
FWIW, I'd personally like to see a way to "close the books" without
saving off old data into another file -- e.g. I'd like to see a
function that just created the balancing splits from Income and
Expenses into an Equity Account.
