Again we would not recommend posting these types of questions to both the 
mailing list and the support site.
Since this is not a developer question -  the support site was the appropriate 
place -
https://support.bioconductor.org/p/125609/

We have members of the team working on developing the new TxDbs for the release 
and will look into the reasoning and post on the support site thread.

Subject: [Bioc-devel] Converting gene ids to GRanges - ensembl centric TxDb 
missing for human

Dear BioC devel,

I want to convert geneids to GRanges by doing:
        GenomicFeatures::genes(txdb)[geneids]

Works wonderfully for mouse, with entrezgene as well ensemblgene-centric TxDbs:
        txdb <- 
TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm10.knownGene::TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm10.knownGene
        GenomicFeatures::genes(txdb)[c('100009600', '99889', '99982')]

        txdb <- 
TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm10.ensGene::TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm10.ensGene
        GenomicFeatures::genes(txdb)[c('ENSMUSG00000000001', 
'ENSMUSG00000000003')]

For human, hower, ensembl-centric TxDbs seem to be missing:
        txdb <- 
TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.knownGene::TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.knownGene
        GenomicFeatures::genes(txdb)[c('1', '10', '100')]

       # No TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.ensGene::TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.ensGene

Has this been a (perhaps recent) design choice to no longer offer the 
ensemble-centric TxDbs?

(The larger context of this question is the development of multicrispr 
(https://gitlab.gwdg.de/loosolab/software/multicrispr))

Thankyou for feedback!

Aditya
