thanks for looking into this

nevertheless I do not understand how an incompatibility between data
model (postgres) and client can be classified as wishlist

it is very clear that querying "false" will not return null values -
hence the user will be see incomplete/wrong data

Title:
  initialisation of bool fields

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  bool fields in the database may have 3 values : true, false, null

  the web client can only filter true and false

  hence the resources with a bool field = null can not be filtered

  I doubt that many users can distinguish between null and false -
  especially as this is not "visible" in any of the clients. - in both
  cases the bool field is "empty"

  suggestion:
  automatically set bool fields to false if not explicitly set to true.

  BTW
  I accept the argument, that a bool field can be "not defined" (null)  - but in this case the clients must handle this in an understandable and distinguishable way.
