I really, really do. Unfortunately, the ldap part of it is very
specific to our ldap schema. I will work on making it work for a more
generic ldap address book.
To really make one patch work for both roundcube general and for people
like us with wacky addressbooks, I'd like to make it a patch against
devel-api and somewhere inside have a call to something like:
$RCMAIL->plugins->exec_hook('addressbook-autocomplete', array('search
terms . . . .
Then address books could implement that call. Then that hook could be
called either by ajax or to pre-populate the client like we do currently.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Ziba
