Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I noticed in the docs that Account has a type field. It mentions:

The account type does not affect anything currently. It's simply extra information about the account.

However, when I fetched my accounts via the api, none of them have a type field defined. I searched the codebase and can't find it being set anywhere.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Having an account type could be pretty useful for filtering. At the very least if this information is not being fetched from the providers, allowing users to manually define the account type. Would probably need that anyway for local accounts.

Also the docs mention a defined list of account types but would be nice to be able to create a custom account type.
