That's what I was thinking too, though. You could set "trusted source"
on a per-addressbook-entry basis. Like a checkbox in the edit contact
dialog. So my idiot friends would not be trusted, but the smart ones
would. :^) I guess this would be an advanced user thing to use though...
Maybe you could do like sawfish and nautilus and have different
customization options available depending on which user level the user
set himself to (novice / intermediate / advanced)... but that's a little
bit of work, I suppose.
