return pandas df an keep functionality of dict

[jhnwllr]

I have noticed a lot of pygbif functions return sometimes rather nested dicts rather than something more flat like a pandas df.

I have always thought that one of the advantages of rgbif was that is sort of normalizes the json ouput for you.

I think would could start to provide some methods for normalizes nested output from pygbif.

That would be great. Maybe allow for users to still get the dicts output also - I imagine some Python users are used to that.

Of course. That should be the default.
Otherwise all current pygbif-based applications would stop working

I personally prefer dictionaries if I am working with nested objects like json outputs. Plus it is so easy to transform them into your favourite data frame object. Choosing pandas is a bit arbitrary.
