I agree. It makes much more sense to have the import bank statement at the top of the bank accounts tab. It should be used regularly and secondly, it will be easier for new users to find.
This has already been at least partly implemented, it is at the top of
bank account tab → A bank account “Cleared Balance” drill down
Perhaps not that obvious for a new user to find. The top of the bank accounts tab would be better again in my opinion but I can easily work with what we have.
