That is a known issue and not easy to fix, as the drop down box only contains 
accounts and no categories. Not sure, how to fix this.

A match always happens on a split basis and so does the acceptance. I've never 
seen any category in the matched state (showing in bold etc.). So how do you 
come to the conclusion that a "match shows accepted" in the ledger?

The acceptance itself is not stored at all. The matched state is where a split 
contains a complete transaction as a member. This is the transaction it was 
matched against. Once you accept it, this contained transaction is simply 
discarded. We only store it to be able to 'unmatch' and bring that transaction 
back into the ledger. So from my perspective things look OK.
