Isn't it possible that a stock can be quoted in more that one currency? If it is traded on more than one exchange or priced privately, possibly if it is not traded publicly but a private price is publicly available as a few securities such as XDNIX (quoted on Yahoo) in the United States. I think GnuCash can track such cases if the user wants to track them.
