Hello,

Last weekend I took some time to do a few work on this feature.

Currently, I'm working on my own branch on my Gitlab here:
https://projects.adorsaz.ch/adrien/homebank/tree/advanced-budget-editor

(note, that branch will be heavy rebased and updated as it's only a current work in progress)

Instead of having an enormous array with every categories, I've decided to split the view in 3 parts:

- "Balance": contains categories (income and expense) that have a budget. This view will be read only to reduce the number of columns (it doesn't have columns "Same ?" and "Monthly") and shows only categories which are forced to show or which have a budget set.
- "Income": contains income categories (even the one which don't currently has a budget) and is editable
- "Expense": same idea, with expense categories

Currently, all this work is still under the "report" menu, because I need your opinion about how to name this new budget manager and if it should replace the current budget manager.

Personally, I think we should keep both budget manager and we could call this one "advanced budget manager". Although, I'm aware that it will double work of support and bug surface.

On next days, I'll implement the edition of cells to allow user to set values.
