OK.

What am I editing here?  An existing transaction?  Is it possible to do this
with a new transaction, so I can work with the same data as you?

OK.
> 4. In the "Interest" entry enter "foo (Brokerage)"
So you're using/creating a new category?
> 5. In the second "interest" entry enter an amount, say 10.
Sorry, which  second "interest" entry?  Are you now in the split editor?

Which is what?

I'm sorry, but I'm not yet sure I know what you are trying to achieve, and I
don't think I am following your steps correctly.

Perhaps you could provide some screen shots, and ensure your steps are fully
explained.
