Why is nothing in the remote referenced by info_hash?

by Zeus on 2016/06/11 09:28:58 PM    
Giving a unique GUID to a specific torrent makes it impossible to reference a torrent by info_hash in the remote. It would be nice to be able to start or stop a torrent by a universally known identifier rather than one unique to the client the torrent is loaded into.

Tixati doesn't show the info_hash of a torrent anywhere in any interface that I've been able to find. If you're saving me from myself for security purposes, I'll take my chances. You still need to log in to use the remote and if that's compromised then no amount of hiding behind a GUID will secure a specific torrent.

How about at least adding something to the remote interface to be able to start or stop a torrent by info_hash even if no other command can reference it that way? Maybe an option to use info_hash rather than a random GUID?
