Minor goals
Suggestions:
* '''Some "attributes" we have currently don't match up well with GEDCOM''' When Gramps originally was conceived, these attributes did not have dates, places, and media attached (Gedcom did not have these either). The last version of GEDCOM allow this. Dated attribute would help, or just make these into Event/Fact types.
* '''A method to mark objects as "used"''' ''TODO'' tagged items work like this now, maybe another standard tag?
* '''A way to attach objects to the database itself''' Something like the "Researcher"/"Database owner" but including other data. See {{bug|6365}} & {{bug|8734}}
* {{bug|11404}} Change location of '''resource-path''' file to allow Python pip Wheels. eg: [https://github.com/sam-m888/gramps/commit/1bd29abfb6671db4e5d77b485eed21850728a05e#commitcomment-21095399 Running a post-install script is not possible with wheels, so it looks like we need another approach. I suggest that we look for the resources in the standard places at run-time. - Nick Hall] & [https://sourceforge.net/p/gramps/mailman/message/36029538/ Re: (Gramps-devel) tar files, zip files, distutils, etc.]
* {{bug|6300}}: '''Organize Tags be able to select a background color also for visability''' - [https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=6300#c26888 This would be quite easy to do, but would require a database change. - Nick H]
* {{bug|10777}} Fulltext search on all elements, objects, items, types which can have a text / string in.
* Support GEDCOM _UUID. Two choices
** 1) extend data model with a list of additional IDs, which would be _UUID or possibly GOVID, GEONamesID etc.
** 2) Store them in attributes. The former has advantage that they are invisible to users except for tools explicitly using them, also could easily support db lookup like GrampsID. The latter limits work to import/export. Gedcom L group has just completed a vote on how they should work for import/export. Ultimate goal, better merging. [https://gramps.discourse.group/t/introducing-uids-for-new-persons-and-families/3507] [[GEPS_009:_Import_Export_Merge#UID.2C_GUID_and_UID.2C_what_is_needed_in_Gramps.3F|GEPS 009: Import Export Merge: UID, GUID and _UID, what is needed in Gramps?]]
* [[Lossless GEDCOM Export]] - Custom GEDCOM tags required to round trip import/export via Gramps to GEDCOM to Gramps!
* {{bug|12874}}: '''Translations/gettext - make context the norm''' [https://gramps.discourse.group/t/translations-gettext-make-context-the-norm/2133/2]
