Hey Danny! When you were setting up Genquire from scratch, did you have to manually fill the FeatureType table, or did one of the scripts do that? My concern is that the change_types code (called anytime a feature is created) will automatically fill in a FeatureType entry for any type that it has never encountered, but it sets the "container" value to 'N' by default, meaning that (AFAIK) gene objects would not be considered containers if Genquire was left to its own devices. Dave - any comment? I want to be sure that I make a note of this in the documentation if it is necessary to initialize this table by hand.
