Yep, it would resolve some problems, in fact it would resolve lot of problems
right now we have others problem, when we want to synchronize contacts for 
example some fields like:
name: John
tel: 6666

and in the server we have

name: John
tel: 7777

So what we do? it can be different persons ... the users choose what to do?
It needs a big study
