I'm digging into the second item on implementation plan, having mostly
finished splitting off Bio::FeatureIO (in a branch):
* Rename some TypedSeqFeatureI methods as suggested in Hilmar's post
Where Hilmar's post is at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.perl.bio.general/15846
Now, he refers to an interesting thing in there that I haven't heard
discussed before, which is the concept of having the feature's
source_tag by typed with an ontology term also, as source_term().
I can see how this might be a good idea, or it might be overkill.
Anybody have thoughts on having feature _sources_ strongly typed with
ontology terms?
