Still present in KDE 4.4.4.  Can we move this to confirmed please - we have two
users seeing it.

Can I also point out again that this is a serious DATA LOSS bug?  If you
attempt to edit a contact stored in Google contacts (i.e. change any data
stored for them) you face a high probability of clobbering existing data (phone
numbers, email addresses).  I've observed both the phone number list and the
email address list stored on Google being truncated by just adding an e-mail
address in KAddressBook.

The Google contacts akonadi resource is not only rendered useless by this bug
for many/most users, it is *worse* than useless - it is a liability to even
have it installed.

I also noticed that other data that Google contacts stores is removed when the
updated contact is sent back to Google.  In particular, the groups the contact
belonged to are all lost.
