    REQUEST FOR NEW FEATURE.
    Need to override lot specification of shares (assets) that are transferred between accounts. When sending Crypto assets from one wallet to the next, it shouldn't trigger a taxable event so there is no need to specify lots on a FIFO basis. And it makes it confusing to track the movement of assets from one wallet or exchange to another.

    Unless I am misunderstanding, this feature already exists. When using "Shares Transferred Between Accounts," you may specify lots which are not FIFO. This is not necessarily for tax purposes, but for tracking cost basis and gain/loss.
