Works great - thank you
Is there a way to default to subscribe to child taxonomy terms, if you use taxonomy hierachy eg if you have a tags hierachy:
Fruit
- apple
- orange
Vegetables
- peas
- carrots

If someone subscribes to Vegetables and then a page is created tagges with carrots - would they receive it? or would they have to have subscribed to all child terms in the first place?

I'm pretty sure that term hierarchy is completely ignored.

A shame not to at lease have that option, perhaps turned off by default

That rubs me the wrong way.

Sorry Salis, that was not my intention. How could I have phrased it better?

My turn to apologize: I'm not a native English speaker and I misunderstood 'shame' for 'disgrace' (see here). I'm sorry for reacting too strongly.

This would add considerable overhead to node creation/updating. We would have to be able to turn it on selectively per vocabulary, and on a site with lots of users you might not like the resulting performance hit.

Do you know whether the taxonomy_access and tac_lite modules support term hierarchies as you propose? I'm not even sure what my own forum_access module would do if we were to allow subscribing to forum containers... I do know that FA does not support inheriting permissions. This looks like a can of worms...
