fetching EMBL reference for an RNA sequence results fails with a sequence mismatch

      Description

      Looking up database entries for RNA sequences assumes that the database holds an exact match, rather than the genomic version of the sequence.

      E.g.

      >ABJT01000033.1/33739-33825
      AACACAUCAGAUUUCCUGGUGUAACGAAUUUUUUAAGUGCUUCUUGCUUAAGCAAG-UUUC-AUCC-CGACC
      CCCUCA-------GGG-UCGGGAUUU

      Fetching [EMBL database references] for the above (by importing the fasta file above to Jalview, then using fetch db refs->EMBL) results in a 'Sequence not 100% match' error, and no identifier added to the sequence. The database ref fetcher needs to be taught how to translate between DNA and RNA nucleotide sequences.
