I would love this feature. I use gnucash to do the finances for my (VAT 
registered) ecommerce company. At the moment we are seeing relatively 
small numbers of sales and I can just about keep up by entering the 
splits manually. If sales doubled then I'd have real problems (mind you, 
it would a problem I'd love to have). For credit account customers I 
handle them using the business accounting features and it works well. It 
is the website/credit card customers that have the potential to overwhelm.
