Hi Everyone,
I saw that we know have a LabelLookup[0] which is awesome (thanks,
aude).
I would like to use the some kind of label lookup in our Lua bindings,
as getting labels there is insanely heavy (we get the entity, then push
the whole thing into Lua and then extract the label).
Sadly the current label lookup is uncached and as far as I can see we
neither have a change to fix that nor a bug for the issue, yet.
It would be great to hear about why we don't have this yet (or am I
missing something?) and whether you think it's ok to use it yet (don't
want to knock over the DB by hitting wb_terms a lot).
Cheers,
Marius
