New Address book has lost the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N to create a new contact from anywhere in the AB

Expected
- Ctrl+N with focus anywhere in the AB window should create a new contact in the currently selected AB.
- If `All Address Books` or read-only AB is selected, create a new contact in `Personal Address Book`.
- I'm also not sure why we have lost the AB context menu entries for `New Contact` and `New List`? Would seem like a frequent thing mouse users might want to do with as little movement as possible.

Note: Imo it makes sense that Ctrl+N is context-sensitive (new msg in 3-pane, new contact in AB tab). For creating a new message from AB, we still have Ctrl+M.

New Address book has lost the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N to create a new contact from anywhere in the AB (regression).

Expected
- Ctrl+N with focus anywhere in the AB window should create a new contact in the currently selected AB.
- If `All Address Books` or read-only AB is selected, create a new contact in `Personal Address Book`.
- I'm also not sure why we have lost the AB context menu entries for `New Contact` and `New List`? Would seem like a frequent thing mouse users might want to do with as little movement as possible.

Note: Imo it makes sense that Ctrl+N is context-sensitive (new msg in 3-pane, new contact in AB tab). For creating a new blank message from AB, we still have Ctrl+M. We won't find a keyboard shortcut that is anywhere near as internationally intuitive for creating new contact as Ctrl+N.
