Description Randall Wood 2010-06-28 19:58:47 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.1) 
OS:                Linux

Currently to use an LDAP resource you must configure it using the drop down menus: Configure Kaddressbook -> LDAP Server.  It would be much more intuitive to reach that GUI/wizard using the "Add new addressbook" menu under File.  

This has the advantage of mimicking Thunderbird and Apple Addressbook, and allowing users to specify an LDAP server in a somewhat more intuitive way.  

For bonus points, I quite like Apple Addressbook's use of a small icon (a plus sign) to invite you to add an address book, which could be an LDAP server.

Reproducible: Didn't try
