So let me ask this:  It appears most people want the individual
posting to be acted upon, and marked pending.  When, if ever do you
want the balancing postings cleared?  For example:

2013/09/11  Hobby Shop
    Expenses:Hobbies   $100.00
    Assets:Checking

If you clear the Checking posting, when do you want the Hobbies posting cleared?
When I have the item 'in hand'.
For stuff bought in person/brick-n-mortar, it's right away.
If it is something I mail ordered or eBay/Amazon ordered (or even ordered for PDF book download), then I clear it when I have the goods "in hand".

If it is:
2013/01/01 (2245) Pay Bill
      Liabilities:Credit Card:Discover $100
      Assets:Checking

then I clear each line separately when I reconcile each statement.
