Comment 11 for bug 552565

I think it would be best to be able to assign a "standard" currency to an account, as well as a currency/conversion rate for each transaction (that might change with each transaction, since currency rates are very dynamic). This conversion rate is then used to "normalize" transactions into the base (or "view~"?) currency. It's only getting ugly when you change the standard currency of an account, since then each transaction's conversion rate must be changed accordingly, but I think you don't have to change the standard currency of an account often if at all.

Did that sound reasonably or in any way how any of the other affected users might like it? That's at least how I'd like it :)
