Yeah, there's a lot missing from open data projects to make it easy.
I think the "correct" way forward is as follows:
species
orgenus
etc.This is a lot of work but if you're into it (and know both the subject matter and javascript) doable within a month or two of after-hours work.
If you decide to go for it, feel free to ask for help here and if I know something from the top of my head I will try to help you.
PS
Actually, I just realised that everything is mostly here already on the Wikidata side. What I actually wanted is something like this: https://w.wiki/EVgg
This does produce a list of all fruits and all species/gena from which you collect those fruits, sorted by "popularity" (sitelinks). It's like half the interface for our supposed map already!
This is really a great thread in providing another idea for the community to contribute!
