Changes for version 1.7 - 2013-10-02

  • Added `max_lookback` method to Parser, allowing applications to set a maximum number of features to be stored in case they might be referenced by features coming later in the file. Can make it possible to parse GFF3 that does not contain enough '###' directives.
