I think that one of the greatest contributions of the gnucash project
to the world would be the following:
Explain the accounting terms credit and debit in such a way that "my
gramma" can understand it, and in a concise enough way that I am not
reminded of my college accounting textbooks. Also enumerate many
different accounts and for each, explain what type of account they
are, why they are that way, and what a credit and a debit for each of
them means.
Oh, and put it in the gnucash documentation.

PS. if we can get that much figured out, we should have an 'account
wizard', where we allow people to work through the creation of
their accounts, and all that jazz.
PPS. would it be wise to have a very full list of accounts already set
up for examples and for someone to start with?
