I do not want the transactions that are created automatically going by without my looking at them and seeing that they actually were created with the correct dates, amounts and accounts.
If there was a chron job equivalent (maybe even without Gnucash running with the desired file open) or only in a file that GnuCash currently has open I would want it collect all the SLR transactions that were created without supervision kept in a log for later review.
