Thanks for the clarification. Isn't there a way via active bindings to
preserve the
interfaces conferred by e.g., illuminaHumanv1CHRLOC, so that queries to the
object (no longer a Bimap) succeed with the endorsed metadata? the chipDb
packages would be revised to use a new protocol for these queries that go
through
TxDb.
