Public bug reported:

The gramps man page says:

OPTIONS
  -i,--import= FILE
              Import  data from FILE. If you haven't specified a database then 
a temporary data‐
              base is used; this is deleted when you exit gramps.

However this does not seem to be the case, i.e., a temp database is not
used.   Instead, the imported data is installed permanently in the
default database.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. rm -rf $HOME/.gramps     
2. gramps -i Nixon.gramps  # (attached) or use your own
3. FamilyTrees->Quit

4. gramps

ACTUAL RESULT: The imported family tree is present in the default database and 
can be viewed
DOCUMENTED RESULT: Imported data should not be present

Again, I'm not sure wheter the behavior or the documentation is wrong
(but I suspect the latter).
