Description Janet 2010-03-31 16:25:10 UTC
Version:           4.4.1 (using KDE 4.4.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

It really looks a bit odd to have the job information right below the name of a private contact. Looks as if that's the part which is most important for me concerning that person. Not nice.

Therefore I would be very happy if I could turn that off, even if I have entered that information. It only should be shown together with the other information in the block below.

Maybe it would be possible to a) only show that information below the name for contacts tagged as "business" or b) to show important personal information in that place.

Maybe an additional field in the editor for this like "personal role" or so... This could be filled with either business or private information or maybe to choose from "use office data", "use family data", "use nickname", "freestyle".
