Hi! Thanks for this awesome project, a much-needed tool in the Python ecosystem. I wonder if you could consider addiing a separate data structure to each GSM object that would store the list of all SRX and SRR entries associated with this GSM. The motivation is that, with a list like that, users could use your library only to scrape the GSE/GSM/SRX/SRR data. This would allow using your library in other workflows, where users may need to manage data download themselves. Thank you! Anton.

Hi, Thanks for the suggestion. I will take a look into this when I start to work on a new version which should happen relatively soon. I am not sure now if this is not out of scope for the project. Anyway, this looks interesting on its own.
