For me, i don't see very useful to assign payee to posting and not to a transaction.
For a transaction is an operation that happen between two person. The payee and the person who make his account. In the case below, it is either not the same transaction. (So we should create two transactions. ) or it with the same person, so we don't need to have different payees. Moreover, i thinks i make more complex the format of the file.
