This would be a nice enhancement. The old NC 4.7x had this ability, though it
was not bullet proof. It had a buggy way of putting first and last name
combined into either or both the first and last name fields on occasion.

Isn't this a duplicate of bug 40046?
I'd like to see this done too, but it seems that no work has been done on that
bug for quite some time.
