Doing more keyring housekeeping, I would like to all revoke user IDs of
keypairs with revoked/expired certificates. However, I am getting this
error:
> gpg: Cannot revoke the last valid user ID.
This is also in the documentation:
> --quick-revoke-uid user-id user-id-to-revoke
> This command revokes a user ID on an existing key. It cannot be used
> to revoke the last user ID on key (some non-revoked user ID must
> remain) […]

Why it this?
I have keypairs with revoked/expired certificates keys in my keyring
which have *all* user IDs revoked. And I am sure I want to do this. Is
there a way to override this limitation?
