When I first tried this out, I didn't play around with the show node count and show unused items options. Now I tried it out:

Let's say I have nodes in categories as follows:
Marketing(0)
-Branding(0)
--Visuals(3)
-Sales(0)
--Visuals(0)
Finance(1)

What I see is:
--Visuals(3)
Finance(1)

I don't know what "Visuals" are being displayed here.

What I would like to have the option to see (i.e. Choice of Show all Unused / Show Unused Parents for populated terms / Show all) would result in:
Marketing(0)
-Branding(0)
--Visuals(3)
Finance(1)

i.e. a category term with 0 nodes would be displayed if it had a child term that was displayed.

Thanks!

Hmm, I'm wondering why it doesn't. I'll have to look back at the code and figure it out. I have reproduced this situation, so I will be able to see if it's fixed.

Okay, you got it. There is no option though. If a term has children, its count will be the sum of all of them. Note, that it looks like there is a core bug in forums vocabularies.

Fix committed to both branches.
