This bit of module provides 'Taxonomy_alt' views filters as select lists rather than autocomplete fields for free-tagging vocabularies (in addition to the regular taxonomy filters). This is actually just a clipping of views_taxonomy.inc, lines 34-81, with name changes to the $table key and the filter name, and the 'free tagging' flag unset so that views_taxonomy_form() renders a select list instead of an autocomplete field.

Also, I couldn't work out how to get cvs to generate a diff without having write access to add the files, so I've attached the .info and .module files themselves. Hope that's ok :)

as it turns out, this chokes on large vocabularies, bringing down a site when the views cache is refreshed if there is a free-tagging vocabulary with a large number of terms. views caches even unused filters, so this is an issue even if the taxonomy_alt is enabled but no taxonomy_alt filter is used at all. (possibly why views doesn't allow use select lists for free tagging vocabs in the first place...)
