Feature Idea - Sync the person DB with CarDAV server for easy bootstrapping

[arthurdk]

I think that syncing the persons database to a remote contact server (CarDAV, Google & others) would be great.

It would:

• Remove manual creation of persons, at least for most of them (all of my closest friends are in my contact list for example)
• Persons could have their face matched automatically, this would allow to perform a face match without any user interaction, yay!
• Names would be updated automatically over time
• Contact pictures will be automatically updated over time (will strengthen face id)

For the 2nd point, of course if a face has been wrongly matched (several persons in one picture) it'll be possible to undo that manually.

I'll be proposing a PR soon to get things started.

Is this meant to say "CardDAV" rather than "CarDAV" ?
