This is implemented now. Just make a file called accounts.dat, and put in
lines like this:
account Company 1
...
payee X
....
Then include accounts.dat in your normal data file. Use --strict if you want
to see warnings about uses of accounts not in your list.

This is probably not going to happen.

I don't fully understand what you are asking for here.

I believe Ledger already does this, if you put "= 34.11 USD" after the cost,
doesn't it? Or maybe I'm not understanding...
