Description
Currently, users of the webservice have to guess which data source has attributes, see these two issues:
* https://github.com/bridgedb/bridgedb-webservice/issues/1
* https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDbWebservice/issues/3
It would be nice of the Properties returned by a Derby file actually says which "root" identifiers actually have attributes. For example, for the metabolite ID mapping database, attributes are distributed over HMDB and ChEBI, see the second issue above. cc @DeniseSl22

Research direction
Start by reading the two linked webservice issues and tracing how Derby files produce their Properties. Determine where root identifiers and attribute data sources are represented. Done means the returned Properties identify which data source provides attributes for each relevant root identifier, with coverage for the metabolite example.
