unable to differentiate between accounts with same name
I am using several accounts which provide the ability to save contacts (google, samsung, nine/active sync). They are all named by my primary email address and I cannot control/change this. Despite I'm using only one of them (nine) productively, I'm not able do disable the others. Even if I disable the contacts synchronization in the google-settings, the account still appears in the accounts list in simple contacts in certain locations.
This problem appears at least when using the checkboxes when filtering the list and when selecting the account to use when creating a new contact or trying to move it between accounts from the radiobutton-list. When using the filters it's unimportant if I select one or more of theee accounts, they are all selected after applying. Only when I deselect all accounts, none of their contacts are shown. I did not yet dare to create or move an account within the app.
Being able to choose which attributes of each contact to present rather than solely the name would remediate this perfectly. After all, being forced in a file-manager to solely see the name would be similarly problematic.
