I'd probably choose all of them. Let me sketch a possible usage pattern: 1. Select Contacts in the first pane 2. `/` in 3. See `All Names`, `All Email`, `All Address`, `All Details` (or something along those lines) 4. `All Details` would basically flatten every detail available with typical type ahead lookup, so that if `99999` is in an address somewhere, I could type that and have the list filter down to that address. Conversely, if I can guess someones mail address (say at my company), I can type the first characters of their mail address and then hit paste or mail to them. I think of this somewhat like the way iTunes.app works. I can `/` in and see all albums, or all artists, or all songs. Each is a different level of abstraction over the catalog, with songs being the deepest and widest dive. So if I know the album I can go that route to make it easier but if all I know is the name of a song I can get to it. That sound reasonable? Alternatively, I would simply expose as a top level item in the Contacts catalog every email address available, along with the names of each contact which can be `/` into. I would think that you wouldn't need to allow `/` into a mail address, I'd think of that as a shortcut of sorts to get directly to the mail address. -- In Christ, Timmy V. http://blog.twonegatives.com/ http://five.sentenc.es/ -- Spend less time on mail -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
