 The search dialog in the address book editor already has the
check/radioboxes to choose the options to use for searching, so maybe we
just should provide a toolbar button in the composer to invoke it?

 Right.

 Yes, but "mail alias substring expansion" doesn't do this: if it's on, the
code checks for the matches in the middle as well while if it's not (more
sensible IMHO) it only checks for the matches at the start.

 I.e. if you have typed "foo" and press TAB, normally it looks for "foo*"
while with this option on it would look for "*foo*". The latter is also
useful sometimes but less so than the formet (IMHO again).
