Support multi-value select for term assignment instead of autocomplete

Created on 16 July 2025, about 1 month ago

Problem/Motivation

In user testing we performed with several colleagues, we found that the entity autocomplete form widget for providing term values for multi-value term reference fields was not very intuitive. This was likely because we don't use that widget in our large Drupal distribution anywhere else. Instead, we use multi-value select fields, and typically enhance them with a JS widget like Select2 or Chosen.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Provide a config option to control what widget type is used for multi-value term reference field assignments.
