Health

Is 'Health' a standard tag in GEDCOM? How should one enter a health property? It sometimes seems sensible to call it an event (diagnosis of a permanent condition) but then it is an attribute!
Entered in a custom 'Health' attribute it is not recognised in an external data handling source, such as Genelines.

I have Health as a custom event and Genelines 2.0 picks it up fine.

I think Genelines handles custom events, but not custom attributes, although I have not experimented much, or it could be that it only deals with events/attributes with dates on them.
