My main critique on the new goals feature is that it may not work for some species if you don't want all the genes to be the very exact same.
How would you find research goals for just a maneless blue Ebena Kuranto?

From those 3 example research goals, appearance-wise they all show the same sprite. But just one different hidden gene would result in no matches at all, which I wish was a partial match instead.
Example visualization:
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:aaBbCC, Feet:AaBBCC, Pinto:aaBBCC, Leopard:AaBbCc, Face:AAbbCc, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:aabbCc, Wings:AABbcc
will not match with
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:aaBBCc, Feet:AABBCC, Pinto:AABBCc, Leopard:AABBCc, Face:AABBCC, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:AABBCC, Wings:AABBCC
even though they both show the same, or even
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:AABBCC, Feet:AABBCC, Pinto:AABBCc, Leopard:AABBCc, Face:AABBCC, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:AABBCC, Wings:AABBCC
where every other gene is different except for Body and Mane.
I was merely addressing the point of gender which you also mentioned in your original post. Visible genes being the same for several genetic combinations is a thing that is currently not supported, since these research goals geared towards actual genes and not visual appearance, for that feel free to make a thread in the suggestions forum.
