Regarding search and replace, I wouldn't want to get too aggressive with that in existing transactions, especially reconciled transactions. It could easily overwrite intentional spelling choices. However, I would also like to only have a limited selection of choices for new transaction s, preferably correctly spelled, unless I use a lot acronyms meaningful to only a very select audience. Not knowing how to decide which suggestion s would be good, I don't see a good way prevent bad choices from being included unless the user creates a custom dictionary. That could get very cumbersome.
On the second idea, I would love to have an undo/redo feature similar to the one in the office suites.
