Why can't gnucash download the stock prices each time it is started?.
When the user  loads a file it should ask the question "You stock price
info is x days old. Do you want do download new stock prices?" and
download the information if the user wants to.

I believe there's no need for actualized stock prices as long as the user
does not use the data. Of course if you want gnucash monitor the stock
prices it's another story...

After all, you not only need to run the scripts, but you must also set up
an Internet connnection if the user has a dial-up line instead of a
permanent link. This complicates the problem...
