We develop the ultimate idiot proof shell where you don't have the power to configure bo-keep, configure plugins, change books, change transaction type, navigate between transactions, and explicitly create or delete them. This one will operate plugins in a stand-alone mode where you are only responsible for one transaction of a particular type at a time. When you reach and signal some kind of "done point", your relationship with the transaction is "done" and you're then working on another new transaction of the specified type.

  I envision this being most useful for folks using the "end of night cashout" example configuration that will be developed for the multi-page-glade plugin and the eventual port of the ParIT Cash Register (http://parit.ca/products/parit-cash-register) to being a Bo-Keep plugin.

  And I imagine some variations for this -- at the "done" point we can either close the window and have the new transaction start once the shell is re-launched (cashout case) or keep the same window and continue operating on the same transaction there.

  Further -- an idiot-proof stand-alone shell can be configured to be obtrusive on close or at the "done" point if it makes sense (cashout case) -- perhaps by checking get_financial_transactions() and saying "we don't have something book worthy yet, are you sure you want to leave me?"
