Both prior software packages I have used both required a separate step to actually authorize a return if it was not unlimited.  You could do everything but not print anything. If you tried to print it would state that you need to have it authorized and not let you print.  Of course the wording was different but those were the steps. They were like ProSeries tied to the SSN or EIN.

I have better things to do than fool the software vendors by writing down the info and filling out a return by hand and they know it too.

Here is the bottom line.  A suggestion was made, I replied that I too want that suggestion and provided additional reasons for the request.

Who are you to respond as to what the software vendor will do or not due.  I am not making the request to you. (the royal you), I am making it to the vendor.

And if adding this feature brings your (royal your) computer to a crawl and it expires, it's long past the time you need to upgrade your equipment.

Let people make a suggestion to the vendor, and let the vendor decide if it make sense.
