“Godparent promoted to a standard role for 5.2” The example.gramps has [2 Godfather examples as Associations](https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=13112). While it is a minor that that will have to be revised for the 5.2 examples, many users are going to have examples of Godparent, Godfather, Godmother, Godchild, Godson and Goddaughter. And those will need to be harmonized into the Reference information section (which adds Citations in 5.2) of the Christening Events. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/gramps/original/2X/8/8a045d1bf276290f5f8541425dd9a47fa3b8f232.png) In addition to the value itself, the Association may have Citations, Notes, Privacy and a modification date that would be useful to preserve in the Shared Event. This is a likely evolution path of popular Associations in the future too. So a batch tool that migrates an Association (merges a particular association type into a new share from the Association person’s Primary-Role Events) is likely to be needed in the future. ---

Add Stillbirth as a fallback for both Birth and Death events. PR#[1148](https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps/pull/1148) Just used Stillbirth for the 1st time. After adding the Stillbirth event, I clicked Add again to add the burial. But Gramps guessed “Birth”. It should have recognized Stillbirth as both a Birth and a Death then skipped to guess Burial. Is that change to the Guessing sequence a Bug or an Enhancement? ---

It behaves just like if you add a baptism as the first event. Add a second event and birth will default when you probably wanted death. The guessing only follows birth, death, then burial even when other events are the fallback events. If all three are used, birth will be the default for other new events. ---

In the same vein why when I do a “birth” and then “next event” does it skip to “death” my logic is always to look for a baptism (sometimes the baptism is found first). Can I alter this? Can it be configurable? phil
