I think this is just a matter of taste where people disagree. You
prefer to put the name in the account name. I prefer to keep simple
account names and instead store such information as metadata.
Maybe my queries become slightly more complicated:
reg income:contracting -l "tag('Client') =~ /Foo/"
vs
reg income:contracting:Foo
but I prefer a simple chart of accounts (as do most professional
accountants, who unlike us geeks, don't care about that level of
detail, at least not in the chart of accounts).
