yes.

For showing names this looks fine, but for Edit I would prefer separate
fields ...

When I looked at your screens, I noticed the same thing :)
and yes, maybe it can be combined with the events display,
but what about the date field does this make sense for attributes ?

Can we put as a requirement a screen of minimal 800x600 or does this
sounds too much as a MS approach ?
One disadvantage I saw on your screen shots was that the person-screen
is on the same physical window as the search, where mine is just a
"secondary" dialog box opened from the "primary" search/over view list
window.
This way the user can open two such person-dialogboxes to compare them
(for a manual merge for example, or to drag and drop a Person from the
overview
list to the "Add Spouse" of the opened Person-dialog.
Anyway: its good that there are several sets of "possible" screen shots,
this way we can combine it to a better one ...
Kind regards,
Geert
