Implementing such functionality in a port-specific way may address this: Safari Mac port could make use of the integrated Address Book facilities, while Chromium could, for istance, bind its source to something else (a local cache for Gmail's address book? a list of previously typed email addresses?). Nevertheless, leaving such work to some sort of "abstraction layer" and let the user choose what he wants as source could help (defaulting to the most used addresses' source on the specific port). IMO, it's quite hard to address all the possible scenarios and having the same level of UX on each one of them: picking up the most common and build something around it to ease user's life is a possibility that doesn't impact on the status quo. -- Bye, Michelangelo _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
