Bug Description

Have noticed - and this may be a longstanding issue - that upon setting up a fresh database, the Account Types table is populated with default entries. Then when you install the chart for a specific locale (doesn't matter which one, but say the U.S. chart), you end up with a whole additional set of Account Types, which mostly duplicate the ones already there.

I would have thought the locale install process ought to update existing Account Type records that have the matching type code, rather than creating new ones?

Alternatively, is there a way to suppress (at DB creation time) the automatic installation of the 'default' chart template and its associated types model?

I have since discovered this appears to be a long-standing issue.... see bug #919932.

It would appear that many of the standard chart implementations needs to be updated to use the default account types rather that using their own ones.
