Hi Ray,

In this case, I have an application that is already generating unique
UIDs as it was previously synced with another calendar system. So they
are not the same as the Google event ID.

I was hoping to query on the UID I am supplying to Google, but I
haven't found a way query that returns results for it. I've tried:

https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full?uid=12312312312
https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full?q=uid2312312312
https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full?q=uid:2312312312

Ideally, this functionality would be exposed through the Java API, so
it would be possible to add a UID to a query object in the same way
you can add a date range or full text string to match.

Thanks for looking at this,
-Jason
