Well, you know I agree with your changes, and think they're the right
thing to do.  However, I think it can work without them.  Why not use
the long form "account id" you get back from libofx as the unique key
for accounts?

Btw, I started working on payments in my spare time tonite.  I got a
payment posted to the test server, and inquired on its status. 
Unfortunately, the server reported that the payment did not exist!  So
it may be a problem with the server.  I will continue to work on it.
