bullshit. it does so change in practice. As soon as a I change the kabc association, the metacontact id changes. I would call that changing in practice, wouldn't you? > How lany times per year do you change the kabc integration ? > that doesn't matter. When I said the id should never change, I meant it. What part of "never change" doesn't make sense to you? Oh, wait, I get it, I'm just being stupid because i want to prevent bugs in the unlikely case that somebody changes the metacontact id by changing the kabc association for that metacontact. </sarcasm> seriously, if the id that I use for this can change, then there will still be a bug and we have good users who will find and report it.
