David, 

I think you misconstrue what GnuCash is and intends to be. 

1. GnuCash is not multi user. As such it does not provide user based audit 
controls. 

2. GnuCash is open source, so anyone can modify the code base, when following 
GPL guidelines. The GnuCash developer base is exceedingly small, however, so 
the likelihood that *they* will write the modifications for you is also 
exceedingly small (although that would be up to them, and not me).

3. GnuCash is not multi user. Multiple simultaneous access to data *will* 
corrupt that data. Just don't do it. 

4. Um, perhaps train people. GnuCash use presumes some understanding of data 
entry under a double entry accounting system.
