Scope starts with by rank and/or known parent

[ermbutler]

I am using the following endpoint for an autocomplete: https://fathomnet.org/worms/taxa/query/startswith

To allow for scoped results, we were wondering if these two options could be considered:

By rank:

• https://fathomnet.org/worms/taxa/query/startswith/{term}?rank={rank}
• ie. worms/taxa/query/startswith/str?rank=Family

Within a descendent of a parent:

• https://fathomnet.org/worms/taxa/query/startswith/{term}?parent={parent}
• ie. worms/taxa/query/startswith/str?parent=Asteroidea

Combination:

• ie. worms/taxa/query/startswith/str?parent=Asteroidea&rank=Species

Notes:

• parent really means ancestor. I'll leave as-is as it's easier for end users to spell 😜
• The parent is case sensitive.
• rank is case insensitive.

Thanks @hohonuuli, Appreciate the update! I am going to play with this now.

The current use case should be ok with the case sensitive parent, but I will let you know if that ends up tripping me up.
