Unfortunate. My use case is stock that has split. The suggested way to record this change in basis in GnuCash is to sell all the stock, and then rebuy at the split quantities at the new pricing. This will lead to amounts that are fractions of a penny, but simply cannot be recorded in GnuCash with the current restriction.
Even worse is when a spinoff happens and needs to be recorded. The basis of the stock needs to be modified, but the only way I can see is to "sell" and "buy" at the new basis, but the total amount per purchase cannot be in fractions of a penny. When I have over 100 lots to do this to, the rounding to the nearest penny will catch up...
