--- Comment #4 from Carl Pettit <[email protected]> ---
To simplify the user experience I would suggest the following:
1. Stop presenting address books as data sources.
2. Deprecate the Envelope mechanism in favour of a master document that has a
page definition for the envelope. The Envelope mechanism is of little benefit
to the user today.
3. Use a database connector (ODBC/JDBC etc) to present address books,
spreadsheets and indeed databases and LDAP as data sources.

Item 3 presents a much more flexible approach and a consistent presentation of
the available fields regardless of the data source type.

Admittedly the current user experience regarding the selection of data sources
has much to be desired. But that is another story.
