Increase size of Statement Balance field in Bank Reconciliation

Ideas or bugs? I see this issues has come up before. It was classified as a bug then, and @lubos said:

Whether that’s true or not, I have lived through hyperinflation in Zimbabwe, when a loaf of bread cost Z$10,000,000.00. So, I can well imagine the frustrations of trying to run accounts with a system that does not allow for more than 12 or 13 significant figures. However, I do not know enough about the workings of Manager and the database to know if there are limitations or potential issues with raising or removing the limits on the number of significant figures.

I’m sure you’re right that it’s an insignificant amount of money. But I would still find it annoying that Manager shows the account as not reconciled, even though the statement and records do actually match down to the smallest unit.
