I belive the new format that Bill hinted at that I'm just about
finished with will make everything you want here pretty trivial.

I'll be submitting a description and committing some initial code
soon, so everyone can comment, but not until I finish my current train
of thought and have some time to test it.  In service of that, I'm
going to write something that Linas has wanted for a while:
(account-group-= g1 g2).  This will let me test for correctness here,
and it'll be useful for "make test" which we should start fleshing out
soon.
