To define the format of an address within Kontact and to be able to copy the formatted address to the clipboard in a single operation.

It would be nice to have the format of the address defined for each country.

When using OpenOffice to write a letter I would find it useful to be able to select the recipient in Kontact and to copy a formatted address to the clipboard for insertion into the letter.

There is, in Kontact, no method to define the required format of an address and, more bizarrely, no connection between the entity known as "Delivery Label" and the contents of the addresses fields!

It is this address label that, if present, is displayed in Kontact, rather than the contents of the address fields. Edit the address (but not the label) and the address displayed does not change.

Edit the address and then export the contact as a vcard and the new address is just added to the old one, but the label is unaltered. Remove the preferred address and then create a new address and the label will be cleared and not refilled.

I know that this is not a bug because of the response of Tobias Koenig to my bug submission number 132847. So I make this feature request.
