Ferdinand,

You are right, account journal and tax codes must be sorted.

I just saw that it can not be a generic rule (put _order by default
everywhere) because sorting by most recent first (=sort by id) is a good
think for lots of documents.

IMHO each class should have either _inherit or _order to return a user friendly ordered list - especially in respect to the number of records displayed - to avoid order by id
