Using major account name options is not supported, they are marked as errors

[ChristopherA]

I use capital letters for my 5 major account types, to make them more obvious. Beancount supports with the following options:

option "name_assets" "ASSETS"
option "name_liabilities" "LIABILITIES"
option "name_equity" "EQUITY"
option "name_income" "INCOME"
option "name_expenses" "EXPENSES"

The formatter does not use these and marks all of my major account types as an error in RED.

Hello, did you place these options at the beginning of your file? According to bean-doctor list-options:

You should place these options at the beginning of your file, because they affect how the parser recognizes account names.

Also, as I tested, if you split your beancount file to multiple ones and used include, you need to add these directives at the beginning of every file.

I also faced this problem. It looks like these options are not taken into account.

UPD: I've just found that the issue is relevant only for different languages. So if I specify custom root accounts names in english everything works well.

I keep my ledger mostly in Ukrainian. But i'm forced to use english in the names of the 5 main accounts. I really like the extension, but this constant language switching while i'm posting to the ledger - it's definitely not as optimized as i wanted it to be. Maybe there is some workaround? Or it should be a specific update that adds such functionality to the extension?
