Enable connection to remote mysql database as backend
Allow connection to remote mysql server back end to retrieve past transactions and allow user to make new ones. This would eliminate need for any sync workflow between mobile and desktop.
This would require building a service to communicate between the app and the MySQL backend. We have neither the resources, nor plans to do this at the moment, sorry.

This seems to be a suggestion worthy of a plan. There ought to be plenty of otherwise unemployed "resources" available for an open source project. Please clarify what you mean by "building a service". There are probably several different ways to establish a secure connection between any Android device and a server which is already serving MySQL.

the app gnucash remote is good but only for adding new transaction. My meaning is that gnucash whitout mysql support unpractish. GnuCash remote that use php script to access mysql is most Better as original app.
