Good Morning Dave:

For almost all cases in the table browser, intersections are not
performed with MySQL queries.  Almost always, any item of an
intersection is turned into a bed format representation, then
the two bed format representations are intersected.  We have
a kent source tool command: featureBits, that can do this type
of intersection.  So if you extract your two items of interest
as bed files, you can then intersect them with the featureBits
tool.
