Bug Description

Accounting reports generally show negative amounts in brackets rather than with a negative sign.
Judging from the lack of answers given here: http://help.openerp.com/question/20849/how-to-display-negative-numbers-in-brackets-on-reports/ it seems OpenERP does not provide this functionality. It would be nice to have an option to display them as such if the user requires it.

I have created a extra option in languages to format negative numbers into brackets on accounting reports. See the linked branch for more...
