Kaddressbook could/should use marble or libkgeomap to provide maps of the address and coordinates of a contact. Reproducible: Always
I think this is a very nice idea and since it seems it's fallen into the deep oblivion I'd like to revive it. A small screenshot of Marble's maps for the addresses, shown in the contacts' details view, would be quite practical, like those when you share a location via your mobile, but on a computer screen the size and area could be bigger. It's a quick way of remembering a location without having to launch Marble or a web browser. Sure it doesn't provide as much information, but most of the time we just need to remember a couple of details, especially for frequent contacts addresses (familiars, friends, etc).

Now I reread the OP's message I'm not sure if he was talking about the same I was. I don't inderstand well what Luis Silva meant with "provide maps". Perhaps he talked about launching Marble from KAB, which is exactly what I don't want. I just want that KAB takes a screenshot of the area where the address in question is and shows it in the contacts' details column. If you think I should post this in a different bug, please, just tell me.
