Hi,
I needed a very simple filter for the default select list, and the Views widget was too much power and too complex for such a small requirement, so I've built an additional widget allowing to choose one of the field of the target entities to filter the list before displaying it (ie. Choose a zip code before choosing a school, so the entire list of schools is not displayed first).
I don't know if it can be included in this module or if I have to create a contrib one… let me know!
