You're welcome to attempt to provide a patch!

I think I end up using vi and search.
Which does mean you need to understand the internal model to know what
the xml tags mean.
Once you've found the date, you can go back into Grisbi to find that
record as that is quicker than manually do the many lookups needed to
turn the codes into values.
