TopCat, Sorry for my seemingly dismissive reply earlier. In my Gmail I completely missed your detailed description about how 3.7 and 4.1 actually work today on your machines until I finally found it by drilling down into thread history. I do not like how Gmail does that, but I cannot solve that right now.
I personally do not have subaccounts under bank accounts that I reconcile by that method so I have not seen your issue, but it appears to be a bug in release 3.7 that has been fixed in release 4.1. I doubt that the developers would entertain a request to revert to previous behavior, but you are free to ask.
