[Kde-pim] address book copy does not copy

I have noticed that one cannot copy text from Kaddressbook via Ctrl-C
or the Main Menu. I went to file a bug but found this:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81101

Is that resolution final? The developer mentions that one should not
be able to copy information from a contact because "the concept of an
address book is to deal with contacts, not text, so copy, cut, paste
refers to contacts as well, not to the text." That sounds incorrect to
me, as in Okular one can select text and copy it without copying the
entire PDF, in Kmail one can copy text without copying the entire
message, in Konqueror one can copy text without copying the entire
webpage, and so forth.
