Yes, aware of Johnny but it's a bit above my not-a-trader head for the moment. Hope to learn more about it at some point!
The motivation for making this fidelity csv importer was just to try and approach importers in a more open source manner. Have scraped several thrown-together ones before and was hitting a point where I felt there was a decent spread of cases I had encountered to help scaffold things and benefit (and improve) attempts to structure importers better as redstreets importers have done. At the least I finally understand petl a bit more. Aware also of your other message critiquing 'class + config' abstraction of importers in "*quick word about CSV importers*" ( https://groups.google.com/g/beancount/c/jMY5cvUfm3I/m/LjwZzp46EAAJ ), but was already pretty far down understanding redstreet's approach by the time I saw it.
