Having said that, the sole method gnucash appears to allow for
/account selection /on saved reports is the user must /manually
/select the accounts one wants included in such reports. If the user
ever creates/adds a single new account, that account will /not /be
included in a saved report, at least in my experience. It would be
completely /reasonable/ for gnucash to also allow users to specify
some /logic /for which accounts should be included in saved reports.
Complex logic would probably be quite difficult to program, but logic
as simple as checkboxes to include/exclude ALL {income, expense, asset
and/or liability} accounts, I am confident to say would be /highly
/utilized and appreciated by the gnucash user community.
I may be sounding like a broken record. Learn what the reports are, and
the options that you can set. No sense asking for a feature to be added
that already exists.
I'll take ONE example. Lets say you want an "asset report". As of some
date, you want just the asset accounts (and all of their children). So
you run a "Balance Sheet" and where you specify accounts to include you
select "Assets" (JUST that one account) along with the option "select
children". That selects all asset accounts, and the option SHOULD* be
preserved in the saved report.

* If not, then there is a bug of the "binding" sort. The "save" should
be preserving the OPTIONS specified, not the result of the options
having been applied.
