Soooooo... jury nullification good, or bad?

One could argue this was not actual jury nullification, since the jury's reasoning was basically that the Code is so complex the case could not be proven in practice. But it is sure in a grey area.

It will be interesting to see if the civil case goes down in flames, too.

I doubt if this is within the catagory of Jury Nullification. This sort of thing happens with some frequency. The jury is not (necessarily) being given the legal facts of the case, and making a statement that they believe the law is wrong! They are saying that, for whatever reason, the government has not, and will not state the legal reason why this individual is required to pay the Income Tax! If the government can't explain the reason for bringing this person to trial, from the law, then it should lose every time.
