Unfortunately, if the uid is at the family level, gramps does this:
<family id="F0685" handle="_B5J1TJ3WVDX95VEF7B"
change="1156970164" type="Married">
<father hlink="_J4J1TJ386SJLD54PFB"/>
<mother hlink="_XOT1TJUNBKPXYDQVUV"/>
<event type="_UID 7C41D07CC6CE594F8B4DC3BFB95C53656C61">
</event>
Any idea how I can get gramps to ignore this as well (considering
there are two lines there)?
