I love the "search throughout" feature. i am the treasurer of a foreign
   mission, and we track expenses by missionary family. All I have to do
   is to type in "david" and up come David's housing, transportation, and
   support accounts. That's so much nicer than typing
   Expenses:Housing:David, and so on.

   I hope this feature doesn't go away.

I wish to support the 'search throughout' method.  I admit that it took
me several seconds to get used to it but it reduces the size of the
short list of partial matches very quickly until I can pick the winner
very easily.  Since I am now expecting it I don't have to type several
introductory characters before typing the real meaty characters of my
search.

Thanks for posting, David. I was blinkered by what I was used to, but I
think you're right, it's just a matter of training myself to type
something unique from the interior when starting at the beginning would
come up with the account I didn't want.

All my accounts payable begin with "AP ", and all my accounts receivable
with "AR ". Maybe I should move those to the end of the account names.
I'll think on that for a while.
