No. Reverse/delete that mess.
Are you using the 'Process Payment' feature?
Step 1. Click Process Payment, choose the vendor, select Invoice B,
enter the total payment amount, select the source account, set the date
and a note if any, then commit the payment. This will pay off Invoice B
entirely and leave an over payment not attached to anything. (the excess
is *not* applied to Invoice B so you can't issue a credit against it.
The excess is simply 'extra'.)
Step 2. Click Process Payment again, choose the vendor, but this time,
select the over-payment and Invoice A in the list. Set the date as
appropriate - do not change the amount or anything else. Commit the payment
Now your single payment has been applied to both invoices.

I tried to follow your suggestions below, first entering a reversing
transaction to clear my earlier entry. Then I applied the payment to
invoice B, which left a "payment imbalance." I couldn't figure out a way
to apply that to Invoice A directly. Of course, it may be there and I'm
just missing it.
What I ended up doing was processing a "Refund" of the overpayment of
Invoice B, and applying that to a new asset account I named, "Vendor
Credits." Then, I turned around and entered a payment of that credit
amount to apply to the first 25% payment on Invoice A. Kind of clumsy,
but at least you should be able to follow it at tax time.
