Double node construction when creating new term through HS field [#1568688]

Steps to reproduce the bug:

Add an HS field to a content type with permission to create new terms
Add content of this content type
Using HS

traverse existing taxonomy
select at any level <create new term>
provide new term

Do one of the following:
1. - Action: Press Create on HS field and then Save for the new content
  - Result: the content (node) is created twice, the new taxonomy term once
2. - Action: DO NOT press Create on HS field, just Save the new content
  - Result: the content (node) is created once, the new taxonomy term is not created
3. - Action: Press Create on HS field but DO NOT Save the new content
  - Result: the content (node) is created once, the new taxonomy term is created once

So, the desired result is achieved following option 3, but the intuitive action is that of option 1. Either the HS submission should NOT submit the whole new content form, or Saving the content form should behave like updating an already existing node.

I'm having this issue as well. I've found that repeatedly opening and selecting a term on a list will also keep making content. I believe I got over 3 pieces of content created within just a few seconds clicking on the menu.

I've got the same problem.

I found out that under 'relations' as 'default' there is already a 'root' parent term.

I added the parent I want to use, I remove the 'root', and even that there is an error message "Parents field is required." I save and there is just one entry added.

It would be better not ta add the default parent I think.

I get this too and it's pretty annoying if you plan to insert new terms through HS widget.

it creates a duplicated node called "[node:field_nameofHSfield]"

Temporary Solution: Full credit here http://drupal.org/node/1389740

This solves the content double create and autosave bug. The side effect and this could be corrected (HELP) is that the first letter of the taxonomy term will only stay capitalized. Any subsequent capital default to lower case.

Not sure why, but capitalization is hardcoded there: $term_input = ucfirst(strtolower($term_input)); should become //$term_input = ucfirst(strtolower($term_input));
