this is a very tricky one.. I was looking into it a few month ago, as it
also bothered me. At least in my case (swiss localisation) the way the
COA is built gives place to weird behaviour. why?

mostly because you can have inconsistencies of this type:

level 0: COA xxx (view)
level 1. Assets (view)
level 2. liquidities (view)
level 4. bank (view)
level 5. bank account (normal account)

and in another place you could have

1. expenses (view)
2. Maintenance exp (view)
3. Equipment mtn (normal)

so the normal accnts could vary in their levels. i would expect all
parents to be bold, and normal accts to be in regular font.

second issue, is that it is quite crowded to have all levels printed, we
should maybe have a summary report (some level of view accts) and a
detailed report (normal accts only maybe)...
