Taxacom: building such a bridge (between DNA sequence and name) - was Minimalist revision of Mesochorus

[Michael A. Ivie]

"it sure would be nice if the massive database included full-genome 
sequences for all name-bearing types of all scientific names going back 
to Linnaeus."

I would love to see the T. rex holotype sequences. Paleontologists do 
exist, but maybe on on this list?  All of these DNA proposals ignore 
fossil taxa.
