There is a beancount mode for Emacs that does a lot of what you want, but only really of use if you use Emacs.

The beancount mode for VS Code is also pretty good with syntax highlighting, autocomplete, tabbing, autoformat, etc. It's what I've been using for years.

But I think the "real" answer, especially as more countries get increasingly cashless, is to just import a CSV or OFX every few weeks so you're not actually manually entering anything.

Intrigued by beancount mode in vscode. Will try.

I do otherwise employ the workflow you mention: automatic downloads and supervised but nearly automatic imports.
