Currently in _load_data.py, there is an ability to call the python script with a defined interface (parse_args in genomedata/_load_data.py) . This interface is never used. The name "genomedata-load-data" instead interfaces with the c program used to load in track data from stdin.
There should be consideration to re-open this interface or use this interface instead of the existing for "genomedata-load-data" since it contains far more options and is more flexible than the c program.
