When a contact does not have a name attached on the mail, an empty row shows up in the "Select Recipient" dialog. This makes it hard to find a email address without moving the mouse over a row to open a tooltip. Another use case is when a contact lists only the name instead of the full name. When there are multiple "Bob" s in the contact list, one currently has to hover over each entry, degrading productivity. The "Select Recipient" dialog can be opened by opening the composer and hitting the "Select..." button next to the To/Cc/Bcc fields. Feature request: change the row to include the email address. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the composer ("New Message") 2. Click the "Select..." button 3. Look at the rows Actual Results: case 1: Some rows are empty because there is no name. case 2: Some rows contain duplicate names, e.g. "Bob". Expected Results: There should be an email address so that the correct address can be quickly picked, such as "Bob <bob@example.com>"
