Request for a way of restricting the trackpoints API call to a single user #4054

Author: SomeoneElse A workaround for this in P2 itself might be to have a way of loading the last N ways for a user (where N is small enough not to overload the API) loading them in reverse ID order. This wouldn't restrict to a BBOX of course, but in the absence of an external change would provide nearly the same functionality. |

Author: TomH Potlatch 2 is red herring - this is really just a request for a way to limit the trackpoints API call to only returning a single user's trackpoints. As a note to anybody thinking about implementing this I would point out there are serious performance issues that need to be considered as each point has to be joined to the files table to find out who uploaded it. |

(this came out of a discussion on IRC - anyone actually familar with the API feel free to have a laugh and then correct this to say what I actually meant it to)
From a user perspective, the problem is "there's no equivalent to G (capital G) in Potlatch 1". In P1 "g" loads all traces in the current bbox (well, most recent ones first) and "G" is similar but for my traces.
As I understand it* the problem is that the track_points_ call isn't possible to be restricted to the current user.
*from reading an IRC message from RichardF.
