Passing on messages to a long list of addresses is rare - someone always
needs to be dropped. I have a number of address books and within them I have
sub lists. Assembling addresses is easy using std Shft+x an Ctrl+x Explorer
tools. Seeing all selected addresses in one column is great.

My concern is that someone might screw up the great mail addressing scheme
in SM. It provides lots of versatility to gather addresses from a number of
address books and see all the selected addresses in a column for visual
validation.
