Invalid field Account for SObject Quote

Including cross-object Account fields in the Quote Field Set will result in an error on the Create Opportunity & Quote page. This is a result of an issue with the Account lookup on Quote not being editable or accessible from Visualforce.

Symptoms
The following error will be displayed when attempting to create a new records through the Create Opportunity & Quote page:

Invalid field Account for SObject Quote Error is in expression '{!quo[quoF]}' in component <apex:inputField> in page createoppnquote:createopportunityquote
Solutions
Prior to version 1.41, all cross-object fields to a field on Account from Quote need to be removed from the Quote Field Set included in the package.

Starting with version 1.41, the fields causing issue will no longer be rendered on the page.
Status
Cross-object fields cannot be supported because neither the Opportunity nor Quote records are inserted when on the Create Opportunity & Quote page, and therefore the relationships required to connect to other objects (like Account) are not available.
