The fact that we turned off both enforcement and accounting was originally intended I think (Nathan Scott wrote the code) but I agree with you that it makes more sence to turn off just enforcement as is stated in the manpage. The check in quotaon.c:newstate() was buggy and worked only by luck for XFS. After I fixed error checking of kern_quota_on the check stopped working... I have now committed changes to quota-tools and checked that quotaon now works reasonably with XFS so it should be cleaned up hopefully.
