Bug Description

1) I would like to have ability to convert already entered transaction(s) to transfer(s) so that transactions are not shown as expenditures of first account but as money transfered (given) to other account. Or if I have income transaction it should allow me to convert it to transfer from other account (money given to me). All the attributes should be preserved.

Now it is very tedious to convert transaction to transfer currently. You basically have to create transfer, copy _all_ the attributes _manually_, and delete transaction.

In the app I used before (SPB Finance) it was a simple change of category to 'transaction to account category' (as transactions were shown as categories in it). I didn't like that mixing much, but it was very convenient in converting to/from transfers.
In Financisto categories and transactions to other accounts are separate entities and as this conversions are not made often I believe maybe we should have some action button in Transaction screen along with "Forse GPS Location".

2) It would be nice to have ability to do batch conversions of multiple transactions from Blotter screen too. But this would require possibility to select multiple transactions wich could be implemented with adding 'Multi' icon to the blotter list (as in File Manager) after clicking on which and selecting multiple transactions you can click on Transfer icon and be able to edit all the common and new attributes (account to transfer to and maybe currency conversion if different) of the transactions.
