Requiring a specific name for the brokerage account would be a (small?)  
problem for me.  I do see that KMM offers that default/specific name  
when creating the brokerage account, but it does let you (or did when I  
last created an account) rename or choose an already existing account.   
I do have to manually specify the brokerage account when manually  
creating transactions in the investment account.  I don't know what  
would happen on importing, as I have so many other issues with  
importing OFX for investment accounts, that I've been trying to put  
together a comprehensive report of my specific problems, but keep  
getting sidetracked.

I would really like not to see any restrictions on the name or  
relation/hierarchy of the brokerage account for any investment account,  
although I suppose I could live with it.
