      versions may be found in Reports>Experimental.
    [stylesheet-css] a user-customisable CSS based stylesheet
      New stylesheet. Exposes a single text box for full CSS
      customisability.
    Allow account selection by typing into the post-to field of the payment
      window
    When sizing some register columns take account of 'Tot' being added.

    [new-owner-report] bugfix: balance row needs variable linked cols
    Improve translations by scriptedly removing the removed colon suffix.
    [report-utilities] bugfix: aging-list was incorrect. off-by-1 error.
    [report-utilities] bugfix: overpayment works for AP accounts.
    Swap the buttons around on the Budget Open dialogue
      Swap the OK and Cancel buttons so they conform to the normal layout.
    [report-utilities] bugfix: fix overpayment detection
      For 1 payment to >1 invoices, previously would miscalculate
      overpayment.
    [budgets.scm] Budget reports handle both natural & reversed budgets.
      This change is protected by a Feature: Using it will prevent the file
      from being opened by earlier versions of GnuCash.
    [gnc-budget-view.c] totals - 5 fundamental types
      previous showed income/expense/transfers/totals budget totals, of
      uncertain meaning. now shows income/expense/asset/liability/equity
      budget totals. The 5 lines also become sensitive to the global
      sign-reverse property.
    bindings-python - drop references to gnucash-env
      We no longer ship a gnucash-env script, directly use python(3)
      instead
    [balsheet-pnl] fix: single-date balsheet missed printing date
    [balsheet-pnl] fix: hide Equity sections when not needed
      * If currencies are not converted, Unrealized Gains are meaningless.
      Hide them. * If there are no income/expense accounts, retained
      earnings will be nil. Remove row.
    Ignore trailing noise on imported transaction account numbers.
      AQBanking6 uses a separate method for retrieving account numbers for
      account info and transactions, where the transactions method can have
      additional characters, most often the ISO4217 currency code. That
      results in match failures when importing. As a work-around, compare
      only the length of the account-info-generated online id when
      comparing it to the transaction-generated one. Note that this is only
      a partial solution: At least one German bank also appends characters
      to the transaction-generated bank id and that will still cause the
      match to fail.
    [dialog-payment] Add warning label if payment is unattached
      Completing a payment for a customer without associating with an open
      invoice is allowable and is used for prepayments. Enable a warning to
      inform that the payment does not have an invoice/bill document attached.
    [aging] update error reporting
      This error handling was for transactions in APAR accounts whereby
      Transaction Currency != Owner Currency. An example is a manually
      entered transaction, then assigned as payment to a customer with a
      different currency. Update to modern API calls. Show the culprit
      split details. Fixed example output: IGNORING TRANSACTION! Invoice
      Owner: [None:] Transaction:Txn<d:28/10/19> Splits are:
      Split<d:28/10/19,acc:Current,amt:$150.00,val:£150.00>
      Split<d:28/10/19,acc:AR,amt:$0.00,val:-£150.00> Transaction
      Currency:GBP Client Currency:AUD
    Fixed German IBAN error message
    Allow edit of some fields for posted invoice
      Allow editing of some fields for posted invoice. For reasons, see bug
      report: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797400
    [average-balance] show monetaries instead of numbers in data table
    UK VAT template: replace obsolete EEC and EC by EU
    Implements the presentation of static optical TAN challenges (photoTAN
      and QR) inside the enter TAN dialogue.
    [budget] fixcrash: fix crasher for some periods
      eg. the following combo would previously crash: - periods from next
      to current - use accumulated amounts
    [budget] fixcrash: prevent crash if periods start > end
      It's silly to input start-period > end-period. Nevertheless handle it
      by swapping them instead of crashing. i.e. report budget periods from
      end to start.
    [budget-flow] fixcrash: exchange-fn needs to specify exchange date
      because some exchange-fn *do* require date eg. pricedb-nearest. use
      the period end-date for the exchange date.
    [portfolio report] There's no report-currency. Use currency.
    [window-report] show backtrace when report crashes
      * exposes a SCM string last-captured-error containing last backtrace
      * when rendering report-crash window, include it
