Oh hey, using reading comprehension skills this time. The command switches to "image-search" if the direct obejct fails to match a contact, either because you don't have a matching contact or because you are not currently signed in to google. The part that is weird is once it fails to match a contact, you actually can't execute the command get-email-address, because Ubiquity then tries to guess a better command match for what you typed, even if what you typed is "get-email-address grace". But that is sort of a moot point, because the command also has no error handling for not being able to look up a contact.
So the expected behavior I guess would be: a) don't switch to a "better match" command if what i'm really trying to do is "get-email-address" b) pop up an error message if it fails to match a contact when i execute the command, so i know i did something wrong.
