Feature Request
Problem
Per discussion in datajoint/datajoint-python#862 & others, making dj.key_hash a public API for interacting with population jobs table will inprove usability of working with the jobs table when it contains many entries and users wish to investigate the status of a specific job.
Requirements
straightforward user interaction on the jobs table by primary key
Justification
See above
Alternative Considerations
current usage is as follows; requires need to index 32 into raw hash which is a bit of a 'magic value' from
the api consumer perspective
h = dj.internal.hash(key)
kh = struct('key_hash', h(1:32))
Item.Jobs & kh
