If we were going to write a "gda backend" to qof, then yes, theoretically
those checks could go in the qof-backend module instead of in gda.  But
gda does require the necessary hooks (which you just assured me would be
in 1.2).

Granted, it might be "better" if those consistency checks were in gda
so that other apps could use them, but as far as gnucash is concerned
I'm not convinced it really matters.

Is there a SQLite module for gda?
