Address book creation - container

[SharonStrats]

I would like to be able to specify a container name for my address book instead of having it autogenerate.

can you explain why the container name is important, when address books aready have a cutomizable dc:title?

There is supposedly a spec that says a user should be able to define where the address book is created. Timea mentioned this. I can't seem to tag her. I'm not sure where this spec is though. Sorry. But this is why I thought I should give the user the option of the container name. Let's see if we can find the spec before you change the code.

Also I think it may look nicer when searching through your containers to see one that says contacts for instance instead of the autogenerated container name. I'm thinking of SolidOS and when I click on storage. It's not so easy to tell that's my address book.

When you create an address book with big + button in mashilb you choose the name

Doesn't SolidOS show the dc:title? or do you mean when browsing through the containers?

You also need to consider privacy. If someone has access to the parent container, they can see the addressbook container's name, which might leak information.

And from UX perspective, we don't want the user to choose two different names, one for the container and one for the address book that would be quite confusing.
