An example of where this is useful, especially if it has names in it:

providing name based searching for a market application like https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/market/viewer/

right now, this isn't possible under ESI, without a significant number of lookups,or providing a pregenerated file. (around 10k lookups)

I have something to say about this, so moving to backlog.

But we now have an alternative endpoint which tries to tell you what is being sold right now on a regional market. Not what you are able to sell, but you can give it a shot.
