When viewing a message it seems a little silly to re-load the whole message
page when clicking the 'Add to Address book' link (icon) next to addresses.

The only exception to this might be when adding the 'From:' address and
there are hidden images in a HTML message, and the user has the option to
show images from known senders.

However, this is especially true when adding a number of addresses.

IMHO this would be a nice way to improve on this:

- When you hit 'Add to Address book' a popup appears.

- The code that produces the page shown in this popup saves the address in
the address book. Hence, closing this popup at that time is safe.

- If there are hidden images, etc. and the 'From' sender is being added,
refresh the message window to get round the case mentioned above.

- The popup shows a message saying, 'foo at bah.com has been added to your
address book. Enter more details below or close this window'. Below are just
a few fields from the standard add address form (First/Last/Alias, perhaps
phone). They can be updated and submitted. The window closes when the
submission occurs (in the same way the email compose window does).
