I skipped lists for invoices so far, because I think such lists are likely too long to be useful after a couple of years using GnuCash. Perhaps a filtered invoice/bill list could make sense (like limited to the current year, or limited to a certain customre/vendor). Anyway this is not implemented (yet?).
