2016-01-02 * "Coffee break"
  Expenses:Coffee-Shops    3.50 EUR @ 1.20 USD
  Assets:DebitCard                   -4.20 USD
  Equity:Exchange                            0 

imho we should distinguish whether all amounts have no commodity vs the case where you have some 0 postings (different to a null posting!). I've seen this in hledger documentation sometimes.
