Currently when I have an entity reference field which is targeting entityforms and select inline entity form as a widget then it is not rendered at all as if the field was not added. After switching field widget to list it works fine.
I don't know if this is already supported in 2.x branch but this feature would be great :)

I also would love to see support for Inline Entityforms

I second that this would be great. I tried following the readme integration instructions from the IEF project but they are really vague and didn't manage to get it working.

Has anyone managed to get Entityforms working with IEF without too much hassle?

Adding related issue where I'm trying to figure this out.

Somebody made sandbox for this: https://drupal.org/project/inline_entityform_form
I haven't tried it yet

Thanks for link - it's not working for me unfortunately but maybe my setup is uncommon.
I described it on inline_entityform_form issue queue.

Support for IEF is two different problems.

1. There's a problem with IEF being a widget for field that is referencing Entityform.
2. The other problem is attaching IEF widget on any field that belongs to Entityform itself.

The second problem is a bigger one because it seems IEF module is trying to attach it's submit handlers to edited entity in a way that is not working with Entityforms. I'm not sure if this is module's weight issue (too soon IEF is trying to attach itself) or rather something to do with how Entityform is rendered at all. The submit handler is trying to attach to the Entityform at wrong time which results in empty entities on saving :)

It'a a little bit hard to explain so I'll try to describe my example with code sample later.

I don't need the form that is created with the entityform, rather I want to be able to create the entityform from the node form. Not really place fields or anything but it would be nice to have the entity creation form embedded in the node form.

I don't want to had this directly to this module but would be supportive if another contrib module did this.

There are just too many open issues with this module already.
