KMyMoney shows a dashed line to catch the users attention (which apparently has
worked). A category assignment is not strictly necessary but leads to false
reporting. This is what double-entry accounting is all about.

I understand your wish to postpone the display of the red frame. This is a bit
more complex in cases where the tab order has been modified. Therefore, I turn
this into a wish list item and adjust the title.
