Description

We've had several users ask how to find the portion of a consensus sequence that maps to each coordinate reference. If a project has more than one coordinate reference, then include separate lines for the consensus sequence of each coordinate region, plus the full seed. That will also make the headers of the FASTA downloads simpler.

Research direction

Start by locating the consensus-sequence generation and FASTA download entry points in MiCall, then trace how projects with multiple coordinate references are represented. Done means each coordinate region has its own consensus line, alongside the full seed, with simpler FASTA headers; no specific files or tests are named.
