Support for per-posting payee

[hieu-van]

There are often cases that we might want to record payee on a per-posting basis. For example:

2024-1-2 an absurd transaction
        a:b:c                          $1     ; payee: Mr A
        a:b:c                          $2     ; payee: Mr B
        a:b:c                          $3     ; payee: Mr C
        wallet                        -$6

AFAIK this is possible with Ledger, but not with hledger. To achieve this, we can use a custom tag for recording payee, but that does come with its own limitations.

My 2c: this seems like a niche use case. When I have multiple payees, I usually feel separate transactions models that best. I have separate relationships/obligations with each of them which shouldn't be complected.

You are right. We should hear about the others' opinion on this
