It would be good to have a backend way that lists all Z4/Types in the wiki.
Ideally, together with the labels in a given language.
Potentially make Z4 a parameter of this API, so that we can call for other types too?

So having worked on an autocomplete interaction for the reference type, it seems to me that API (list=wikilambda_searchlabels within the mediawiki query API) could be usefully extended to restrict search results by type; with no query string that could return all ZObjects (up to a limit) of a given type. It already returns id, label combinations for a given language. With type = Z4 that would satisfy this ticket...

Although actually trying to do this, it appears the types listed in the table are not the ZObject id's, but string values - so instead of Z4 you have to query for "ZType". Hmm. That doesn't seem like the right choice long term but I guess we can work with it for now.

This is great, thank you. (Note that wikis will need to purge or null-edit all pages for this to take effect.)
