Feature description

Google contacts has a field relation, which accepts the name of a person and the relation with the contact. E.g.: Francis, husband.

I think it's quite important, and permits to distinguish persons with the same name.

The alternative is to put the relation in the notes

Why do you want this feature?

Because I want to get rid and migrate from google contacts, and I have many contacts with the relation data in this field.

Besides that, a specific field is better that a generic one like the notes.

I confirm that this is an issue for importing from Nextcloud contacts too.

It is also an issue when syncing contacts with CardBook (full CardDAV features) add-on in Thunderbird.
