If I have a trading system such as this:

Buy = Cross( Close , EMA(Close, 10) );
Sell = Cross( EMA(Close, 10) , Close );

and my buy and sell price settings are set to "Open" with Buy Delay = 
0, I have an untradeable system because the closing prices are not 
known until after the trade has executed (open). If backtested, AB will 
give unrealistic returns because the system is allowed to peek into the 
future (knowing the closing prices at the open). Shouldn't AB detect 
this sort of situation and flag the user? Would this be a worthwhile 
feature request?
