Hi,

since a couple of days, the uniqueness constraint on the field 'name' on
the Tax model (account.tax) has been swapped for a uniqueness constraint
on the field 'description' (see [1]). I do not believe that this is
correct, for the following two reasons:

- The description field is not a required field, and many localisations
do not use it. To have a uniqueness constraint on such a field is
meaningless.

- Other localisations such as the Dutch, German, Austrian and Canadian
naturally use the same description as a shorthand for similar taxes that
cannot occur together. In case of l10n_nl for instance, the same
description reflects the tax type and percentage for both taxes payable
and receivable. In the current state of the repository, it is not
possible to configure a chart of accounts anymore according to any of
these localisation modules.

Please revert the commit refered to in [1].

Cheers,
Stefan.
