Great work Andra! Is there any possibility to add for Ensembl related properties (Gene ID, Transcript ID etc.) the version of Ensembl from which these Ids are extracted (maybe by adding a qualifier to the ID value) as Entrez seems to provide this information? Between Ensembl versions these IDs can change in some cases very drastically, so a gene can have a completely different ID or an ID can point to a different item in two Ensembl versions. Without knowing the Ensembl version number these IDs are not that useful especially when trying to correlate them with older published IDs.
