Thanks for reporting this. Please submit such an observation as bugs into bugzilla, as otherwise they might get forgotten too easily.

In this concrete case, I think the mapping from the OFX fields to the gnucash data fields happen in src/import-export/ofx/gnc-ofx-import.c in function ofx_proc_security_cb(); if you're brave enough, you can experiment a bit by yourself how to change that mapping so that your file seems to be imported correctly. But please keep in mind that this might also be a bug in your OFX file or in the external libofx.

As for your other message: If you talk about "import", please always add the kind of import (QIF, OFX, HBCI?). I guess you mean ofx import. In that case, the name of the new account is built in the same file as above but in function ofx_proc_account_cb(), where it says account_description=g_strdup_printf(...). You can experiment for yourself whether you find a better solution here.

In any case, if you want to ensure such problem reports don't get lost here on the mailing list, you should rather report them into bugzilla.

(By the way if you've got a running gnucash installation and you only changed something in the import-export/ofx directory, it is sufficient to run "make install" in that directory.)

If I import via ofx a stock purchase of a new security, gnucash asks me to pick a commodity for the item. If I click the 'New' button, a new commodity creation dialog appears in which the field labels appear in the order:

Full Name
Symbol/abbreviation
Type
CUSIP
Fraction

but the proposed data appear in the order:

Symbol
CUSIP
Type
Full Name
Fraction

making me move stuff around in order to complete the commodity  definition.
