Hi all, Any known way to get around the URI string length for GET requests to the `/occurrence/search` endpoint? E.g., are POST requests supported for passing in parameters? I ask because a user of an R client I work on wants to pass in a polygon that is 40K characters long. Of course precision could be reduced, so the string is shorter, but that doesn't seem ideal. Also not ideal is converting to a bounding box approach that approximates the polygon, then converting that to WKT. Any thoughts? I know it's not standard, but maybe you allow body to be passed to a GET request for `/occurrence/search`? Thanks! Scott
