Well kaddressbook and the addresse selection editors basically obtain a copy of
all your contants, put them in a model and filter on them.
For small contact sets this is quicker but it does not scale so well and for
huge address books this is overhead.

I would rationalize "We have a very quickly searchable index available in
Nepomuk so let's use it for this and only fetch the contacts we really need"

I have to admit, this is currently a pretty bad state (Especially on Windows
where we don't have Nepomuk at all) and there should be a fallback especially
as the code can mostly be reused from the emailaddresseeselectionwidget and
Kaddressbook. But the main discouraging point is to increase ressource usage
and complexety just to work around problems which will be solved eventually.
