      Description

      Jalview includes logic to slow down requests to Ensembl API when it responds with a 429, and also to monitor headers telling how long it should wait before retrying.

      It would be useful to reuse this code for other web services, e.g. the PDB, ENA and Uniprot database fetchers.
