I just noticed something that I think would be a handy feature at some
point.  I just edited the hobbies event for a living person (to move the
data from the notes to the description field), and of course the
sentence reads "She enjoyed x, y, and z." (would apply to other events
like occupation also)  Past tense, and sounds odd in the context of a
living person - makes them sound dead.  Would be nice if it could be set
to use a present tense verb when the individual is set to living, and
past tense is set as deceased.  I can set these individually using
sentence override, but perhaps at some point it can be made to use the
proper tense automatically.

This new event sentence seems to require going back and fixing a lot of
data input, but I'm not sure that can be avoided.  But I'm very glad we
have it now!
