[From: bugzilla-daemon at maemo.org]

           Summary: undo/un-merge merged contacts
           Product: Contacts
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Low
         Component: General
        AssignedTo: nobody at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: maemo at oculex.fi
         QAContact: contacts-bugs at maemo.bugs


SOFTWARE VERSION:
1.2009.41-10

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
1. open a contact and choose 'merge'.
2. accidentally merge it to the wrong contact.
3. (optional: swear.)
4. try to undo.

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
opening the recently merged contact, an option to un-merge certain fields,
especially the IM fields, is, if not expected, then at least immensely useful.

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
no way to undo or un-merge. the only solution is to delete the whole IM-field
in the contact, which is accompanied with a warning stating that the contact
will also be deleted from the server!

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
n/a

OTHER COMMENTS:
i tried really hard not to accidentally merge the wrong contacts, but failed.
and since it is reasonable to assume that this merging process will take place
as one of the first things one would do with the n900, one has probably not had
the time to properly learn how the resistive touchscreen works. thus, i'd say
this is a pretty annoying bug/feature.
