Yes, I already tried it, and it is indeed very pretty: it looks as the the
consumption is in the usage of parsed vcards. Though I have no idea if it
is even right that kaddressbook should have anything other than (say) the
one string it wants to display - I would have thought that everything else
would be in the Akonadi searchable cache? Anyway, hopefully somebody here
will have an idea.

Anyway, the data is too big for paste.kde.org (silent fail) or
pastebin.com(500 kb limit), so I'll have to make it available by other
means if/as
needed.

Thanks, Shaheed
