It would improve certain workflows to have the species search bar that appears on the home page, identify mode and observations to accept the currently used in urls (taxon_id=6930, ident_taxon_id=6930, /taxa/6930 ) numerical taxon id’s as an alternative input (ex. 6930 = Anas platyrhynchos/Mallard)
It would allow additional recognizable inputs, currently there a lot of different inputs that go back to the same species and this could be one more. Sometimes I remember numbers better and I have found myself remembering the inat taxon id for something first since I have been working with it in urls.
Maybe there are others out there who have experienced this? Maybe someone else might find this useful?
