Issue Summary
Does this module do more than using a taxonomy term filter (in views) while using an OG: Group (nid)s argument? Using these two together, I have been able to restrict taxonomy term filtering to only those nodes tagged with a taxonomy term that also belong to a given group.
Is that what this module does or am I missing something important?
Thanks

Sorry jackspiv,
You're missing an important aspect of this module. This doesn't do a restriction on a term against the node, but rather a restriction on a term against the group to which the node is assigned.
As an example:
Your method above:
A song might be assigned to the term Jazz and the group might be the artist which produced the song. This is easy to get around, restrict to the group of the artist and add the term Jazz as a restriction.
What this module does:
A song might be in the group of the artist and the artist is assigned the term Jazz so that every song the artist produces is in some way related to Jazz. This is what this module does... lets you filter by terms assigned to the group that the node is a member of. So you can say, show me all songs by all artists where the artist does Jazz.
Hope this helps.
