Carlos, I think that disable the display of canonical links - is a bad idea, if you use "Fancy URLs".
When the "Fancy URLs" is enabled, the same page will be available with different URL. For example:
Page 1: somedomain.com/service
Page 2: somedomain.com/about
Also, "page 1" will be available at URL:
somedomain.com/about/service
somedomain.com/service/index/about/service
somedomain.com/index/about/service
somedomain.com/service/service/about/about/service/about/servie
etc.
In turn, "page 2" will be available at URL:
somedomain.com/service/about/about
somedomain.com/about/service/about/service/about/about
etc.
If not specified in header canonical link, and search engine suddenly somehow "know" about such links - the site may be penalized for spamdexing (in this case - for different pages with the same content).
Sorry for my bad english.
