Let's say I have Assets:Debit card and Assets:Cash and then some Income:Job
and Expenses:Many accounts here. I'd like to get assets listed the last in
the balance report, without relying on alphabet if possible.
--sort account looks like default behavior in this respect.
But it's not a big deal. I've started to figure out the format strings, so
I'll make them stand out in some other way.

Try --prepend tag("Foo").

Searching for 'prepend' in the man page, I've got this:
--meta EXPR
In the register report, prepend the transaction with the
value of the given TAG.
It sort of does the trick, but it only allows to add one tag. Speaking of
man pages, the one which ships with Fedora package lacks the FORMATS
section. I've found the information in PDF anyway.
So, as I've said, I've figured out the format string, a powerful tool
indeed, and I'm now playing with the register form. Here's what does what I
want:
%(has_tag("nm") ? tag("nm") : " ")
That way metadata gets printed if available and the template does not break.
