feature request: trait -> gene map #8

Hi @ukaraoz ,

As we discussed it's currently possible to figure out which genes in the genes detected table map to which traits by effectively doing a tree traversal starting from the rule for each trait and passing through traits and other rules until all leaves (genes / hmms) are reached (I think...). However, this requires quite a bit of code and is fragile to changes in the output RDS file formats from extract.traits.

It'd be very helpful if instead, microtrait supported one of the following:

Maybe something like this already exists...? I got the impression that's not the case, though.

Thanks very much for your consideration
