Thanks for pointing that out. It must have slipped through when doing those 
product code consolidations recently.

Yes, that already happened, but a release with that change is not out yet.

Please use the generic 'kmymoney' on b.k.o (short for bugs.kde.org) to report 
problems/wishes in the meantime. It is available as a shortcut on kmymoney.org 
in the Support section and will be the one we use in the application in future 
releases.

Sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.
