In address book the current search paradigm is that only the currently selected address book is selected.  When there are several address books  to search this is a real problem. Search in address book should be enhanced so that there can be a global search of all address book.  Probably that should be the default with search reporting in a columned list box with one column showing the find location.

Reproducible: Always
