Description HRamthun 2012-07-12 14:42:19 UTC
When entering an account name, autocompletion starts search at the leftmost of the entire account name. That is, any subaccounts of e.g. 'Expenses' will only be selected once you have entered 'Expenses'... 

Instead, autocompletion should look at the individual acocunts names by themselves (not the long name) and, when there is a choice select first those that are deeper in the hierachy.
