There's some weird timing issue going on. I haven't got to the bottom of it yet.

I don't know for sure that this fixes the test, but I think it does. There seems to be something going on relating to when the new address book dialog shows. I can get differing results by waiting for different lengths of time at various points, and also if I run the whole directory versus just the test.

I've also changed both tests in this directory to wait for address book deletion before ending.
