Semantically speaking, I would argue that this is two different things: - balance assertions, are from my point of view, to assert that balance is correct, I mean the *amount* - checking that EUR is not used, is from my point of view a different thing, and would be better achieved with a directive like "account Assets:Some:Account commodity USD" and "account Assets:Some:Account commodity CAD", those two statements would tell that no other *commodity/currency* is allowed in that account.
