[Kmymoney] Fields mess on OXF import

Hi all,

I'm new to KMyMoney and I'd like to use it as my personnal finance software. First of all I'm trying 
to import OXF files exported from my bank's website. 

It's working pretty well except that I'm very surprised about the fields content : content of the 
MEMO tag (in the OXF file) is imported into the "Note" field (in the KMM transaction), ok it looks fine 
for me. But content of the NAME tag  is imported into the "Pay to" field. So in the end we find 
ourselves with a bunch of different beneficiaries who did not make much a lot of sense...

To me it would be a lot better if the NAME and MEMO tags content was imported into the *same* KMM 
transaction field (with a simple concatenation) as for example "Number" or "Notes" field. Then after 
import the "Pay to" fields would be empty letting the user to manage by himself his beneficiaries 
list.

Or maybe I'm wrong because in most cases the NAME tag content is describing a kind of beneficiary ? 
But with my bank reports, it's not really the case...

Thanks, Vincent.
