Thanks Johannes, this is a valuable contribution and I've added it to the 
'official' vignette.

Subject: [Bioc-devel] Use of EnsDb in the AnnotationDbi framework

Dear all,

thanks to Vince’s suggestion I have now implemented the central AnnotationDbi 
methods “columns”, “keys”, “keytypes” and “select” for EnsDb objects in my 
ensembldb package version 1.3.11 (EnsDb are TxDb like annotation 
packages/objects tailored to Ensembl based annotations). Thus, EnsDb based 
annotation packages can now be used in the AnnotationDbi framework. The methods 
support in addition also the filter framework of the ensembldb package to 
provide some more fine grained querying and data retrieval.
I have forked the AnnotationDbi package and added a section to its 
“IntroToAnnotationPackages.Rnw” vignette describing how to use EnsDb objects 
along with the above mentioned methods 
(https://github.com/jotsetung/AnnotationDbi). Eventually this could also be 
inserted to the “official” AnnotationDbi package.

best, jo
