#21651 closed enhancement (fixed)

Description

In my experience term_taxonomy_id has proven to be exponentially useful in a number of ways, specifically in prevention of same-id collisions of terms used in multiple taxonomies. I'd love to be able to grab a term object by passing along its term_taxonomy_id to get_term_by(). A recent change was made to WP_Query that provides this functionality, so I'm hoping this makes the cut as well.

Shouldn't $taxonomy be optional if getting by term_taxonomy_id?

#6 @wonderboymusic

cache group, filters, whatnot - the field's main advantage is primary key lookup

I guess you could get it from the term, would have to branch the SQL and all that noise.

Yeah, I know it's not a "oh hey just add = '' and done thing. Just seems of limited use otherwise.
