I would like to add the ability to display all of a terms' descendants on a page instead of only displaying the direct descendants without losing support for pathauto URLs!

I am working on finding a solution for making this happen. Please share your thoughts and ideas and I'll continue to post as I go.

Okay. The creators and contributors of the Views module rock!

I was able to make this happen using a single view. I found this on the Drupal forum which helped me get the view setup: http://drupal.org/node/113254

Here are the steps I took to create the view (based on a/b/c glossary):

1) Go to Administer > Site Building > Views.
2) Find the default Taxonomy view under default views and click Add.
3) Under the arguments fieldset change the first arguments Default option to Use Empty Text.
4) Under the same argument set the title to "%1". (this will make the term the page title)
5) Add another argument.
5b) Move the argument above the Feed Selector argument (or delete the feed argument if you don't wish to provide feeds).
6) Set the second arguments Title to "%1"
7) Click the Save Button

That should do it for you. You can go back and configure the view to your liking from there!

This brings me to the issue of losing the Taxonomy Context's Breadcrumb with the view:

This issue is no longer a feature request. Use the views module to produce similar behavior as mentioned above.

Thanks again lee20!

I can't make it work, although it alters the breadcumb as you mentioned.

On step 5: (Add another argument). What type of argument should I add?

Cheers,
Mguel

The second argument should also be a Taxonomy Term ID. I apologize for not clarifying before.

Attached is a screenshot of the the arguments setup that I used to help clarify my instructions above.
