I suppose if there is a broad concensus on how such things need to be
done internationally, or if there is generally applicable
infrastructure that can support local solutions, we should include
that.  If not, we should wait until there is such a concensus.

Note that I think we need to keep GIFI support and that might work for
what you are talking about (basically you have a separate view of your
accounts for tax purposes.  We may want to expand GIFI to include
non-chart fields such as nested headers and key-value fields.
