I understand beancount can add comments to postings. Are you suggesting 
that narrations are possible as well?  IIRC, ledger's transaction notes are 
rendered while beancount's comments are not.

Thanks, that's good to know. I see now it is documented as such. I guess I 
could use key:value pairs but it is a bit more cumbersome than simply 
attaching a narration to a posting.
