This is not a bug but by design.  However, I've wondered about this 
myself several times, as I don't know the rationale for the decision. I 
suspect that originally, its expected use was to match a manually 
imported transaction with one later imported from a bank statement.

Is there some other reason why a user should not be able to match two 
transactions that he knows to be the same?  I keep bumping into this 
restriction.
