I have the same (similar?) problem, I think.

I'm running KAddressbook v5.1.3 on Kubuntu 16.04.

My use case has been to try and make a global custom date field. However, I am
constantly running into lots of little bugs surrounding custom fields.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new user, give it a name and create a new Custom Field, setting the
Type to Date and not checking the 'use for all contacts'. This seems to work,
and I input a date and close the contact view.

2. Edit the contact and add one more date field. Still seems to work fine.

3. Make a new contact and give it a name. Everything is still fine with the
first user.

4. Edit the first contact and make a Custom Field of type Date and check 'use
for all contacts', put in a date and save the contact. In the view pane
something looks strange with the new date field (it is formated differently
than the first two). Go back to the contact and the Custom Fields tab. Select
the third custom field and click Edit. In the Edit Custom Field box, the Title
has now been set to the Title of the first custom field, and the Type to Text.

5. Make a new contact, give it a name and save it. When checking the first
contact now, both the first and third custom fields have their Title's set to
the Custom Fields' ID, and their Types have been set to Text. The 'use for all
contacts' field has also been unchecked for both.

6. Furthermore, and Custom Field for all contacts has its Type set to Text when
trying to edit it from another contact.

Finally, I've tried to export my contacts and putting them all in one file.
When looking at the vcf-file, I can see the Custom Fields, but all the values
are formated as if they are Text fields, and there is no information about the
Type of the fields.
