Filtered lookups and specifying what a user can see by selecting specific View(s) for a certain lookup field are two of the great features of lookups on a form. For example, depending on the Opportunity Type selected, filtered lookups give us the ability to easily only show the appropriate Sub-type values in a Sub-type lookup field. Or for a 'Key Internal User' user lookup field (different to the Owner field) we may want to only show those Users who are based at a certain Site and this can be done with a custom View with the appropriate critiera.

Unfortunately we don't have the ability to apply these features on lookup fields in Business Process Flows. This means for many scenarios they can't be included in the Business Process Flow, which reduces the user appeal and usability of BPFs.

Please make it so that we can use the same functionality for lookups on a form when they in a Business Process Flow.

I believe without this functionality the BPF functionality is unusable.

This has been a hole in the functionality business process flows ever since they were introduced in 2013. It should definitely be on the roadmap.
