I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "enable a transfer that keeps/seals the exchange rate from source to target", but here's what I want in other words:

- a transaction "type" that links two transactions with differing amounts (ex: 100 USD in one transaction linked to the corresponding 130 CAD transaction in a different account). Basically like the existing "Internal transfer" transaction type/feature, but allowing for diverging amounts and currencies on the two linked transactions.

- for those two transactions to not be counted in the statistics (or to have some sort of treatment that doesn't skew the stats like it does right now)

If that's what you're asking: no need to have homebank calculate forex, I just want to enter both amounts manually (because that's dependent on my banks etc., so I take whatever amounts they give me). No need for me to enter/use an exchange "rate", even; just input currency1 amount, output currency2 amount...
