Agreed. We've looked at both and made client specific changes as well. But out of the box is a baseline requirement.

Using a partner as an drop shipping is indeed a very simple solution 
that we have implemented onsite.
Some module by Akretion can help but I really think this should be out 
of the box.

> Some Erp systems copy a partner's delivery  address and make it part of the individual sales order, receipt, purchase order record, and then allow overwriting the copied address to accommodate drop shipping. This avoids having to create a partner with thousands of addresses. And then allows administrators to update the address quickly to a "partners" address if needed.
