Research direction

Start by tracing the existing node-indexing behavior for the g["edge_name", :id] access pattern and inspect how Edge objects are represented. Done means an edge can be indexed and queried by its id, returning the matching Edge.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It would be nice to support indexing on edges, as is done on nodes. This would allow querying an edge based on the index:
For example, g["edge_name", :id] would return the Edge that has that id.
