I have a problem with the currency chooser when in a report under Options/Commodity. Whatever I start to type it comes up with GBP so I have to use the drop down list. In other parts of the programme such as editing an account, starting to type the name of the currency brings up suggestions. Can you make it work like this under reports?

As far as I can see, most windows where you can enter a currency already allow you to use the keyboard to enter part of the currency name, after which GnuCash drops down a list of possible matches. I may be missing parts.

Can you point in more detail to where you want the behaviour to change ?

btw I have done this kind of stuff with web-based services in JavaScript so let me know whether someone needs some help in that area, particularly if some position is for GSoc.

In order for the feature to work, it must be modular. In some boxes like having only currencies, simply pressing the first chars should be enough. It does not need to be TAB for all keyboard shortcuts but the same functions to improve usability can be used in many different scenarios.
