Hi,
another way (that I'm doing) is to link the interest/dividens to the
security by a 0 amount transaction on the security, that way I can
easily query them.
e.g.
2014-07-15 * "Dividend"
Assets:Broker:FooStock 0 FooStock
Assets:Broker:Liquidity 100 CHF
Income:Interest -100 CHF
and then I can fetch out the interest for FooStock by a query like
1. select
2. sum(number) as amount
3. from
4. has_account("Assets:Broker:FooStock")
5. where
6. account="Income:Interest"
Regards,
Patrick

Why do you think it is over the top? Wouldn't that be the cleanest way
to categorize the income?
The accounts are free.
In any case, this is a recommendation from GnuCash docs which I've
been following and found it quite easy to track income per each
security, and also to compare to the same security held at another broker.

Similarly, income like interest/dividends isn't explicitly
attributed to a security -- unless you go out of your way to make
separate income accounts for each security, which feels a bit
over-the-top.
