Suggestion: Datatype interactive

Yes, I'm serious. The end user is using the datatype more and more as multiple editions of apocrypha, pseudepigraphia, church fathers etc become available and sharing documents among users with differing libraries becomes more common. It we had a simple lookup tool that would provide the datatype if we provide author and work, we could save two long wiki pages of confusing instructions and get more users to be able to actually achieve what they want. The current difficulty in use, limits its actual use ... and Eli's already told me the list is too long to slap into a wiki page.

Evidence of current difficulty: I gave up on the annual reading plan for the Book of Concord because I got so tired of tracking down the datatypes which were often anything up obvious.
