            Bug ID: 314474
           Summary: Cannot edit multiple entries in Kaddressbook
                    simultaneously
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: 4.9
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

1. In KDE version 4.3.2, it was possible to open and edit multiple contact
entries in Kaddressbook simultaneously. This is not possible in version 4.9. As
a matter of fact, when on contact entry is opened for editing, Kaddressbook
becomes gray and it is no longer possible to have access to any other contact
entry. Will it be possible to open and edit multiple contact entries in version
4.10?

2. This feature is absolutely necessary for the following reasons:

2.1. Some times it becomes necessary to view more than one contact entry (for
example, in order to compare them).

2.2. Some times it becomes necessary to view and copy information from one
contact entry for use in creating or editing another contact entry.

2.3. The inability to open and edit multiple contact entries simultaneously
makes the use of Kaddressbook much more difficult and much less efficient.

3. One wonders why versions of Kaddressbook after version 4.3.2 have regressed
in this matter.
