Have different journal entry layouts for different journal types

It would be awesome if you could have a different journal layout for different journal entries. For example, when i'm costing out metal shop entries, the layout is completely different than when I am doing a bank rec entry. If we had some kind of grid setting option so we can save different layouts that would be a time saver. It's annoying that you have to constantly re-arrange your layout based on the entry you are doing.

    The Journal Entry function is very limited, very annoying and very archaic.  I use Recurring Vendor Bills for all of my regular entries.  All I have to do is type in the dollar amounts, the layout stays where you put it in the template, unlike the Journal Entries.  I have no idea how the lines are sorted in a Journal Entry, but they are always different than when I set it up.  I use Vendor Bills for Bank Transfers, Depreciation Entries, WIP Adjustments, etc.
