Tags interface for Many to Many fields

It would be great if M to M fields had an interface similar to the one of tags. Instead of choosing from a dropdown (which can become quite long) being able to just start typing in a search box and choosing from list of results.

Also, for the M to M fields, it would be great to be able to disable delete confirmation. It can become tedious to delete all relationships, and after all if the user deletes one by mistake it's easy to add it again.

Re: Tags interface for Many to Many fields

We're looking into creating a searchable dropdown that will make it into the Many to Many field in BigTree 4.3, hopefully that will help with choosing from a huge dropdown!

The delete confirmation for Many to Many has already been removed in the BigTree 4.2 development branch. There's also a new reset and "Add All" button to help do batch operations.

It will be a great feature. Eagerly waiting for the update.
