* In the scheduler, you can't skip payments. (Example: Harena has the monthly car insurance payment scheduled, but this month Woozle paid it. In order to make the "bill overdue!" reminder go away, Harena had to enter a payment and then delete it.) Also, if you manually enter a payment that has been scheduled, the scheduler will not recognize that the scheduled payment has happened, and the same thing will happen as above.

* On data import (or download), will not create account aliases; e.g. if the transaction shows "A C MOORE XXXXXXXXXXXX1111" as the payee, you have to choose between using that exact name for the payee or leaving the payee blank. This should be doable either at import time or at any other time, e.g. select a group of payees and tell the software they are the same payee, and all transactions for each of those payees would be consolidated.
