Adrien, Richard, how are you seeing this regression from an enterprise user pov wrt ux-efficiency? - `Double-click` on a contact in address book will now do nothing instead of editing it (which used to be the default action in TB 91). - `Enter` on a selected contact in address book will also now do nothing instead of editing it. - `Alt+Enter` (on Windows), `Cmd+I` (on Mac) or Ctrl+I are also no longer available as system default shortcuts for `Edit item properties` which translates to `Edit contact` Consequently, - Mouse users either have to navigate to distant `Edit` button (see screenshots in comment 2 and comment 3), or to `right-click > navigate > Edit` - Keyboard users currently need at least 4 keypresses to get from a selected contact into editing mode (context menu key > arrow-down > arrow-down > Enter), or 4x `Tab`. Thunderbird has had `Edit Contact` as a default action for AB contacts in the AB window since time immemorial. Has this been a problem for your enterprise environments in the past? Apart from `Edit Contact`, we are offering some existing and some new actions for contacts, on the new toolbar for contacts (see screenshots) - Write - Event (invites the selected contact) - Search (global search for all communication involving the contact) - Chat (not yet implemented) In your enterprise environments, would you think any one of these would make a better default action in the address book than `Edit Contact`? (If yes, do you think Thunderbird could make that action the default for all types of users including private users, who may not use calendar or chat?)
