That's odd. 

I just tried, and confirm it doesn't show the exchange rate dialog, and you 
can't edit the exchange rate using the Actions->Edit Exchange Rate option on 
the resulting transaction, either. 

You can, as you've noted, open the destination account and edit the number of 
shares entry for the destination account and recalculate the share price. Which 
is apparently how it's meant to go at this time. Annoying, perhaps, but not 
hugely onerous. 

I suspect that the exchange rate logic requires a currency on one side of the 
exchange, and I'm sure there's some logical reasoning behind it. I don't know 
what that reasoning is or might be, however.
