It does make sense, but I'm not sure "None" would help anyone who does  
not already know how reconciliation works.  In the transaction form,  
the field label is "Status" so would a more explicit "Not set" work?   
I'm trying to think about the new user who does not yet understand how  
reconciliation works.  The values of the field are "reconciled" or  
"cleared" or something else, but the third one isn't really another  
value, it just hasn't been set to one of the first two.
