Actually, you are able to have goals that are not tied to a specific account.
Each account has only one sub account called "Savings Goals" which is used to
enter transactions with the set of Savings Goal Liability accounts. So if you
have a savings goal of "vacation" then this is the liability account "Savings
Goals:Vacation" which may have transactions from "Chequing:Savings Goals" and
"Savings:Savings Goals". The liability account will reflect the amount allocated
from all accounts.
