In master you can do this:

  QString accountName;
  auto account = MyMoneyFile::instance()->accountsModel()->itemByName(accountName);

  or if you want to stick with the model type access to the data:

  auto idx = MyMoneyFile::instance()->accountsModel()->indexByName(accountName);
  auto name = idx.data(eMyMoney::Model::AccountNameRole).toString();

which in fact does the looping for you in AccountsModel::indexListByName().

Hope that helps.
