TaxonomyPicker should filter out, or grey out, terms which are unavailable for tagging.

I am having the same issue. I have a termset where the parent term is not checked off for available for tagging, but the children are available for tagging. The picker is allowing the user to pick the parent when it is only there to give the user context. Can we get a resolution for this?

Ah, good point - so it should grey out unavailable terms rather than remove them, or else valid children would be removed.
