First of all: The new Contact Editor looks nice (like all new mockups
and screenshots I have seen recently). I love them, and I am looking
forward to actually using them.


However, the Contact Editor is *big*, like you mentioned yourself. *Too*
big IMHO. The dialog is more than 600 pixels high.

On a 800x600 display this will not only cover most of the screen -- this
will effectively disable the user to access the buttons at the bottom.
The [OK] button will be cut off the screen, if there is a Menu Panel at
the top of the screen.

Any possibility of adding one or two tabs and therefore making the
dialog lighter? Do we care about that resolution?
