Hi Titus,
one question on the usage of the variable name 'id': since 'id' is  
also the name of a Python built-in function, for the last year or so I  
have been trying to eliminate usage of 'id' as a variable name in  
Pygr, since that usage would block access to the built-in function of  
the same name.  (By contrast, using 'id' as an attribute name seems  
fine, because that doesn't interfere with access to the built-in  
function).

I noticed that in seqdb-review you reverted some of my changes, e.g.  
you changed 'seqID' back to 'id'.  I prefer 'seqID', both because it  
states specifically what the variable is, and because of the concern  
stated above.  I propose that we be consistent throughout Pygr in  
naming such variables 'someID', i.e. with a meaningful prefix that  
tells you what kind of identifier it is, and with ID in upper-case.   
That's the pattern I am now following generally.

What do you think?
