OMG! Teh ugly!

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

Since my update to 4.7 KAddressbook displays giant and butt-ugly QR codes.
Not only are they incredibly ugly, they also make no sense. Why would one scan them from a display when the data is available in plaintext for copy&paste?

Maybe I'm blind but I also couldn't find a way to turn that crap off.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Open KAddressbook

Actual Results:  
Disgust and eye cancer

Expected Results:  
At the very least scale them down to usual icon size. Or better: Off by default, show them only when the vcard is printed on paper.

Changing title.
Markus, please adopt an acceptable attitude. If you lack ideas how to proceed, read http://www.kde.org/code-of-conduct/

Closing bug report. Submitter can open a new one if he one day changes attitude.

Hello, 
if not for Markus, open this bug for other users please. I have to confirm that this "feature" is really uselless, at least in this form. Is it possible to make option to switch these bars off? I know no KDE user who is pleased with these big qr bars and who needs them on a laptop/desktop. If it's not  possible to add the option, is there any option to resize them to acceptable size?

Many thanks,
Petr
