I think this is because we haven't got Ender (6262).
Accepting bug but I am expecting only a verification for this bug after 6262 is
fixed.

field in the Address book "Show names containing:..."

** Checked with 9/16/99 Win32 M11 build **

With this new build, we can input Japanese into the ALT text field.
But because of the widget bug (nbsp), we need to insert an ASCII
space if you want it to go out. (By the way it does go out in iso-
2022-jp and so this is good.)
