List of all account styles

There could be list of common/general account styles with description what they are meant for, are there some functionalities related to that account style,  what is the unit, what is the scope etc. so when configuring the system customer/user/partner that configures system could assess which is suitable for them. Like ecoinvent has this ecoQuery. And actually if there are account styles with no emission factors those could be there too. like if someone records production volumes to calculate emission intensity of production. 

That could ease the configuring process if people just could "pick" those they need.  And maybe there would be less need for "custom" account styles.

    We will be releasing our account style wizard to clients some time in Q3 this year. The Wizard provides a series of template account styles that can be selected and added as well as our library of 5000+ public data types for clients to create account styles as needed.
