I am totally disagree about this approach.

We use in Vauxoo as reference this book:

www.principlesof*accounting*.com/

It is REALLY good, our utopic dream is that OpenERP support 100% over it.

Do you have some text book where the storno approach is documented and
where they say explicitly that you can have (-) Negative values in your
Journal Entries.

For me is difficult to believe, in my opinion, It is more a thing regarding
the old system are done in times where validate this were so difficult ....
Now with actual technilogies, i can not see reason to brake intentionally
_basic_ accounting principles.

A LOT of thing are more easy in accounting because we have very weel
controlled this issue, brake it can represent A LOT of more problem (we
solved them in V5.0 when this feature was allowed, and it represent to us
fix 1 year of accounting information) this is the reason because i need
introduce this comment here.

I dont know how we can be affected with Storno, but the First Step is at
least introduce where is the origin of the concept, it must be our starting
point.
