Bug or Feature with export-filter?

I'm using gpg as follows to export a minimum key:

gpg --export-options export-minimal,no-export-attributes \
--export-filter "keep-uid=mbox=invalid" \
--export some-key-id

If the key to export does not have a UID "invalid", then the exported
key does not contain any UID packet at all. Is this expected, a bug or a
feature?

Thanks,
Patrick

Expected. I can see your problem with that but fear that others
view this as a feature to export just the public key part. I would not
mind if you issue a bug report or feature request.

Salam-Shalom,
