The point of the backport is that I and the openhbci guys like to see a 
openhbci2-ported gnucash to be available sometime over the next 3 months. How 
long does it take until 1.10 or 2.0 is going to be released? Maybe we should 
think about planning some gnucash release schedule here. 

If a 1.10/2.0 takes longer than 3-4 months (which is how it looks like ATM), 
then I would like to backport the openhbci2 code into the 1.8-branch in the 
meantime. But if we can come up with some release schedule that heads for a 
1.10 in that interval (2.0 will probably take longer than that), then I will 
happily leave the 1-8-branch alone...

Well, yes, but that's what programming is like.  :-\
