Description

### Inquiry description

Hi

As of Revit 2023 the IfcGuid parameter seems to have changed behaviour.
Its value is now dynamically linked to Element.UniqueId.
So if UniqueId change then IfcGuid change.
Which means if we move a door with Disjoin checked IfcGuid will change since both ElementId and UniqueId changes.

Obviously its not a new door and should retain is original IfcGuid value.
Is there any way to lock the value of IfcGuid ?

### Revit Version

2023.0.x

### IFC for Revit Addon Version

23.2.5

### Windows Version

10 22H2

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the IfcGuid and Element.UniqueId behavior in Revit 2023 with IFC for Revit 23.2.5, then determine whether the addon supports preserving the original IfcGuid after a disjoined move; done requires a documented answer or an agreed implementation path.
