That is how KMyMoney works. Each category and account can be denominated in a specific currency.
The user has the option to select it when creating the currency (which defaults to
the base currency). Once a category is used, the currency cannot be changed anymore.

Reports have an option to convert values to base currency. You can turn that off.

Doesn't the above solve your requirements? If not, I am missing something and ask
you to provide an example to gain clarity.
