Actually I just tested the Uniprot-XML parser and it seems to suffer
from the same issue...

It ignores the following XML "properties":

<dbReference type="Ensembl" id="ENST00000353703" key="75">
<property type="protein sequence ID" value="ENSP00000300161" />
<property type="gene ID" value="ENSG00000166913" />
</dbReference>
