Sounds ok, but I have a few questions:
* How do you handle account headings?
- Is that a separate URL structure?
- Can we request accounts/:heading-accno/ to request all accounts under
a certain heading?
get accounts/:accno

In their configuration, accounts should refer to a heading. How do we want
to support that? Directly refer to a heading accno? Or do we want to keep
our options open and accept an array of string associations? Where each
association defines a relation between a hierarchy and the heading inside
the hierarchy the account belongs to. [My idea would be that we start with
a single hierarchy, so a single account->heading association]..
