Bug Description
EAN13 is a European standard. Other parts of the world do not use EAN13. This field provided by OpenERP is not generic enough. IMO, EAN13 should be in a separate module that can be installed on demand. There should also be a generic barcode field that supports more standardized barcode formats like 3of9, UPC, CODE128, etc
It just doesnt make sense to have a field EAN13 and call it the fits all solution, when really this only makes sense if you are in Europe, Not to mention, because EAN13 requires 13 digits it makes it impossible to use any other type of code.

You are right,
Just to add information in ALL our implementation we have solved this behaviour programming some specific solutions.
IMHO we should have solution for EAN13 AND other ones, UPC is used in America, and probably have more than this 2 one,
Im agreed i confirm it is a must to have, considering we have a POS solution out of the box.
REgards.
