Then you missed it.
$ man gpg
/edit
uid n     Toggle selection of user id with index n.  Use 0 to deselect all.

$ gpg --edit-key <keyid>
command> uid 1

That selects the first uid on a toggle basis - uid 1 unselects it, uid 2 
selects the second uid and leaves other selections unchanged.

Subsequent commands operate on the selected UID's.
