Issue Summary
I need this great module just for one reason:
I use content profile module and image field crop for the user avatar. For an easy way to display this avatar in forums, comments, etc.. nicely with the module imagecahce profiles, I just have to enable imagefield avatar, because this module automatically copys the content profile picture to the core profile picture.
I don't need any Hierarchical Select Modules. Is there any way to disable them? (For performance reasons)

#1
HS gives us nice UI. Since this module is intended for non-developers I can't just throw it out. Is there a particular reason you want to remove it ?
#2
It's just for performance reason. I have to activate these two hierarchical modules, but i don't use them..
Perhaps anybody knows an easy patch for removing the requirement.
Please don't understand me wrong, I find the User Interface of Hierarchical Select also really nice, but I have no select or even multiple fields on my site. (I use imagefield crop module for just uplaoding ONE picture to the content profile..)
#3
You can hack the info file and hope that it won't break (it shouldn't if you don't visit configuration page).
#4
Same problem, HS is not usefull in my case and I prefer to disable it.
With my patch, is not required.
There's an indication to use it in the setting page if you prefer a better widget to select field.
If HS is enabled the module works like now.
#5
The patch has many code style problems, like "else" on the same line, too many white space, etc.
