Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

evolution's integration into the indicator applet is a welcome step, as 
everyone i ask agrees.
problem is: when i choose "mail" from the indicator applet drop-down menu, it 
opens the overall window of evolution, regardless whether there is already an 
open evolution window for e.g. "contacts" or "tasks".

more confusing is the fact that, considering "contacts" and "chat" share
the same drop-down menu column, selecting "contacts" does not reveal the
chat contacts. this is inconsistent with what that menu entry is
currently indicating to the intuitively navigating user..

solution could be, adding support for importing contacts from the chat app.
pidgin-contacts are already suported
system wide contact sharing for authorized applications would be the next step 
as proposed by the people-project, if the name "contact list" above empathy's 
contact list should not confuse the user.
