there is not. So you need to propose one here.

It would be "aa{sv} Import()" since I want a proper dict with sv and not
just ss. Also "Export(aa{sv})" since it is all or nothing. The export
would delete any other entries in the phonebook.

And let me be pretty clear here. Writing a phonebook to the SIM is still
stupid. It is fully pointless in a modern smartphone. The only reason
why we would be merging such a feature upstream is for weird Chinese
type approval and nothing else.

Any UI designer that thinks exposing this is a good idea, should find
himself/herself a new job ;)

Marcel
