David,
Note I'm working in 5.1 with the old ledger, and as far as I can tell,
that property isn't there, or at least not used. I'm working on
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349767 - a way to easily switch the
ledger between Investment and Brokerage account. I was thinking of
adding something like that, but there is still one problem in that while
an investment account can have only one brokerage account, a checking
account can be the brokerage account for several different investment
accounts. (In reality, not currently possible in 5.1.) I'm not sure
how this should be handled, unless there will be a LIST of zero or more
investment accounts.

Jack,
I believe that originally the 'kmm-brokerage-account' property was
supposed to be used to look-up the linked-up brokerage account id.
This, however, does not seem to work, see:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=329701
and https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350360

Thanks. Either of those is shorter than what I came up with,
although
mine does seem to work (looking with gdb.)
My current problem is that I'm trying to add a "go to brokerage" line
after the "go to account" and "go to payee" menu choices, but it
is not
appearing in any of the menus (either main menu or context menu.) I
can't find anywhere in the code where either of the old ones appears
where I haven't added the new one, so I don't know what I am missing.
Jack
