As the ensembl database, the ucsc database has various kinds of annotation
feature tables like exons and genes.  I am not sure whether they also have a
seq_region table.  I assume they directly map their annotations to their
reference genomes, not via contigs...  If this is the case, then we could
just simplify the seqregion.py and work out the mapping.  Agree?
