I think this would be something that would fit into a (rewritten, more 
advanced) bean-format. That way you add transactions wherever (e.g. just 
using shell redirection) but can then reformat it to be ordered into 
sections. I'm not really sure how the usage of includes fits into this. I 
break up my accounts into several files -- e.g. all US accounts are in 
us.bean, all Australian accounts are in au.bean, and so on. And I'm sure 
other people have other ways of splitting things up!

Re: Link-attached balances

How bad would it be if you allow optional time (HH:MM) in the transactions?
This would allow for solving a huge amount of this-kind-of problems that I
have.
