It did make it to the list. However I didn't have time to answer immediately and then forgot 
about it. I'll try now...

I'm not sure what effect the Taxable? column has exactly other than enabling/disabling the tax 
related fields on the line.

I don't think there's a way to disable it by default. As an alternative have you tried to set the 
default tax table for your customer(s) or the global default tax table to "None" ? That may 
give you the same net effect on your invoices. Or perhaps not. In that case please specify in 
more detail what is not working as it should due to this column always being enabled.

Probably a feature. Again I'm not sure of the meaning of that field, but I never saw a reason to 
change it as I didn't see any visible effect (other than a T in the printable report). The original 
author (Derek ?) may explain in more detail.

Unfortunately this was never implemented.
