You would need to write a tax calculation routine which would traverse
the shopping cart and recognize the non-taxable options.
Probably the smartest thing to do would be make the options be sub-items,
ie not options but separate line items grouped with the main item, and
then set them to be non-taxable via the multi/vat taxing setup that allows
taxability by category. I say this not just because of implementation
issues, but because it would be hard to trace and explain why an item's
tax is not corresponding to the taxing percentage * sale price.
