One of the casualties is my ability to reconcile my bank account.
The account covers from 2014 to present, and matches all bank statements and
balances properly.

Here is a fast way to Reconcile everything (not what you asked for, but it
might help)
Reconcile
"t" in Statement date == Today
Left click OK
Ctrl-A == Select All items in Funds In column
Space == Mark as Reconciled
Tab == Move to Funds Out column
Ctrl-A == Select All items in Funds Out colu
There isn't an easy way to unreconcile many transactions, but because
reconciliation dates aren't very easy to see or care about once they get
old, many users will ignore starting dates and balances if they know that
there is a reason that they don't match the bank statement this month.
One poin
This, with one minor change - If you're happy that everything is 100% just
reconcile up to your latest statement closing balance and date. Ignore the
Gnucash generated starting balance because when all said and done it's all
about the final closing balance.
