That's actually what I meant.

Right, but if a feature is the result of you running some algorithm  
against some sequences, then it's not been downloaded or given to you.  
Features on one and the same sequence can have different sources,  
obviously, so I'm a bit confused - I think we're talking about the  
same thing in different words, but I'm not sure.
