I found a situation were it would be useful for the taxon ids of observations in a table be available to NSE in all_names(). For observation taxon ids of lists and vectors, it is easy to just use names to get taxon ids. For example, in ...

The taxon ids of ex_taxmap$data$foods could be found by NSE with names(foods), but there is no easy way to get the taxon ids of rows in the ex_taxmap$data$info dataset. names(n_legs) would work, but pick an arbitrary column like that is a it hackish.
So, i am thinking about modifying all_names() to include something like info_taxon_ids for each table in data. This will help in implementing a function for making mapping between any two variables with associated taxon ids. That function might held DRYing out the code for the value option and make #55 easier to implement.
