One idea would be to have the ability to set preferences, like View,
Columns, maybe even Filters, and then 'apply to all child accounts'.
That way you could set what you want on the top-level account, and it
would cascade.
The Thunderbird/Betterbird e-mail client can do this with its folders
per account. So it is definitely doable, just not sure how simple or
difficult.

Adding the capability to set register defaults by account type would get messy
rather quickly and could lead to additional confusion for future users. Where
are these settings made? Where are they stored? What happens when a user has
changed individual registers and then attempts to make an account type default?
Who decides what the 'normal' register type is for different account types? And
so on.
This is not to say I wouldn't want to have this; just that with complexity, the
likelihood of implementation goes down.
