This is of a minor importance as the users can delete these accounts at the inception of the system
These accounts are not "dummy" , which would mean that they are usable but not shown in the accounting records or reports.
 the standard chart of account included within the system contains other  accounts that must be deleted by the majority of users because they are usefull  only for very large corporations. not for smaller ones.

Plenty of information resources exist over the internet that explain the
french "Plan comptable" and accounting principles.

See http://www.plancomptable.com/titre-IV/liste_des_comptes_sa.htm

There you will understand how to configure the chart of accounts that
fits your needs whilst following the mandatory rules.

For instance the "SYSTEME ABREGE" shows the list of accounts for small
companies, although the "SYSTEME DEVELOPPE" is the standard for large
ones.

The "SYSTEME ABREGE" should be the standard proposition included within
OpenErp.

Title:
  Dummy accounts in French account plan model

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  The model of accounting plan in the French localization creates several dummy accounts named like "Matière (ou groupe) A", "Matière (ou groupe) B".
  In the officiel accounting rules ("Plan comptable général"), they are only indicated to serve as examples of how accountants should divide the main accounts into product-specific children accounts.

  Therefore we must not create them as part of setting up a new OpenERP instance. Instead, the first thing the accountant has to do is to create them himself.
  Those accounts should be removed from the data file.
