it is always a good idea to ask here at first.

Thank you for heads up!

There is an introducing section about localizing account templates in
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Translation#How_to_translate_the_files_containing_the_new_account_hierarchies.

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Account_Hierarchy_Template then describes
several ways to create or modify them.

In theory that accounts are missing the section
  <act:slots>
    <slot>
      <slot:key>placeholder</slot:key>
      <slot:value type="string">true</slot:value>
    </slot>
  </act:slots>
If there is already a <act:slots> section, only the <slot> section
neeeds to be inserted.

Do you think you can create a pull request with the improved file?

Regards
Frank
