Currently I programmed a workaround in python to get all the liabilities 
from the db. Still it would be nicer, if we would have an account_type 
"accurals" or another field in the table accounts to distinguish between 
liability and accurals.

  If I understand correctly what you mean by "accruals" you mean that 
this report requires you to treat some liabilities differently than 
others. You need to be able to distinguish between them. This would not 
require a new "account type", just a partitioning of liabilities between 
"ordinary liabilities" << a place holder under liabilities; its children 
would be ordinary liabilities >> and "accruals" << a second place holder 
under liabilities; its children would be accounts that are "accruals" >>

Then you only need to "scrape" the Balance Sheet as produced by gnucash.
