I am looking for the same solution. Even more, I’m looking for a way to get custom fields into the “create category popup”. Is there anything new half a year later?

There is a feature Request for ACF Extended: https://trello.com/c/WKVxUqm0/258-taxonomy-taxonomy-terms-add-new-term-modal-display-the-whole-add-term-page-in-modal
If this feature is implemented at some day, this would probably be a solution. However, I would prefer if there was a functionality like this implemented as a core feature in ACF. I don’t want to have to install an additional plugin because of a single extension.

Is there a way to replace the + button with a target=”_blank” link, to open the standard “Create category popup” in another popup? This would help a lot. That would help a lot. We could insert a new entry via the standard form and search for it in our ACF. The content is always loaded from the database via Ajax. So we are able to find our new entry without refreshing the page. Or am I wrong?
Are there any updates or workarounds available? The “known-issues” page says in “Field validation does not work in Gutenberg” that there is a fix scheduled for ACF 5.8. but I still got the same issue.
