I think it's also worth documenting in the form or the README the fact that making use of the "Show only used items" option will load the entire result set, which is a bit inefficient and can potentially lead to performance issues depending on if the site has thousands of results or not.
I think a better approach might be to alter and build up a custom query that returns only the used terms. It might require more configuration on the user's end to facilitate this, but the performance gain will be very noticeable.
The alternative is to use Facets instead if you have thousands of results, but again, these disclaimers are probably worth documenting somewhere.
