The accounts "feature" of Bitcoin has never been particularly useful (and have heard of very few people that actually use it because of the way that it works).
For anyone familiar with "accounting" it does not function in the way that you'd think it should (it was more designed for "user accounts" but as the Bitcoin wallet itself doesn't scale up no large websites have used it - or at least have only used it for a short time until they realise it kills their wallet performance).
I would tend to think that "removing" it would indeed be a good idea.

Yes it is not what I thought it was, I agree that removing it would be a good idea.
Initially I wanted to implement this with normal purchases rather than using a top up system, where I do not have to keep track of the users balance. In my system the user can not withdraw their funds, it is not an exchange so any amount the user sends to the top up address should be spent in the store.
I agree with CIYAM, it's probably better to write your own account system. What stack are you using? (I may have examples)
Thanks for the offer but I already implemented it.
