The code isn't picking up the "config" parameters that the PersonAddressHierarchyWidget uses, I think there's bug here when loading in the JSON.

Going to your server and looking at the underlying HTML generate, it indeed looks like the configuration of "shortcutFor" and "manualFields" aren't being picked up, which is the same bug that @mksd was seeing and needs to be entered as a bug.
