Yes, this is why I made the modification. Multiple email addresses per
contact in squirrelmail are intended for emailing multiple people at
once, not for multiple addresses for one person (who you only email
once). When you click on a contact with multiple addresses configured in
squirrelmail, it will add every address to the To: line, rather than
just one selected address. A significant number of faculty members here
use Squirrelmail contacts to track their class lists.

If these contacts are imported in to Roundcube as multiple emails for
one person, this functionality would be broken - roundcube and
squirrelmail handle contacts with multiple addresses very differently,
and importing one multi-contact to one contact (as is currently in SVN)
does not make sense for users.
