could you provide some "complete" scenarios about should be achieved?

i didn't think this module to be used with hierarchical toxanomies.
i thought about taxonomies multiple refereced with custom fields.
ex. Brands, Manufacturers.

I'm afraid that this module aims to do something else:
it deals with the Taxonomy Term Reference Field widget form input (adding/editing entities with that have this field.)
Not with Views Filters.

Probably the name of the module is very confusing. sorry for that.

I still think this could possibly be an open issue for this module. The Term Reference Tree module http://drupal.org/project/term_reference_tree also allows filtering of the terms when selecting them on the nodes via a view like this module does but still retains the term hierarchy on the node display.

In fact i'm using the same view to filter terms with my term reference fields that have the widget of term_reference_tree and the ones that have a generic select list widget. Hierarchal select stays in place on term reference tree but not on this module.

I may try and take a crack at patching this as it would be very helpful to have the hierarchal select in a generic term reference select list.

A use case scenario is:

--Vocabulary of Makes/models of cars. You have parent terms of all the makes and child terms of the models. But you want to limit what options are able to be chosen in a specific term reference field. You create a view to not return those items but now your select list has no hierarchy in it.

Issue summary: View changes

Сonfirm the issue: the module is incompatible with hierarchical select widget.
My use case: 2 levels vocabulary + views that shows different branches of the vocabulary.
When i use core field widget everything works fine, but when i change widget type to hierarchical select,
i get all terms.
