Description
As far as I know, Flexifield doesn't support altering of taxonomy by child term code. Would be quite handy if it did that, so it would be possible to have Content Taxonomy fields that save their information to term_node in addition to CCK tables.
If I understand Flexifield code right, you just need to sync taxonomy between parent node and pseudo-node object when you invoke field code. I'm not sure if it will break anything...I thing it won't

#1
Or maybe it can be done via inserting custom process function in Content Taxonomy widget.
#2
Actually, this feature seems to be relevant for Content Taxonomy only.
After some thought, it seems like this is quite complex task: not only you need to sync taxonomy changes between pseudo-node and parent node at the time of field invocation, but there is also issue of syncing real node taxonomy to flexifield item taxonomy, when real node taxonomy changes via usual taxonomy operations. Content Taxonomy module implements hook_taxonomy() for that, and Flexifield-CT compatibility code will need too.
