Anyway, thxs for the info. Assuming you're using a Google Contacts address book as your primary store, then you're right: it's something which should be fixed in EDS’ Google Contacts backend. However, it's an awful lot of work which I don't currently have time to do. If anybody else wants to have a go at it, though, I'll happily provide advice and review patches. (I'm the maintainer of EDS’ Google Contacts address book backend.)
