I see what you mean .. 

The only way I can think of doing this in a general enough way to allow
different storage backends (ldap, sql, etc) is to change the changeDisplay()
js function entirely.  

You would have to assign an id to each entry to iterate with, then have the
'name' and 'address' values associated with the id.  Both values would be
pulled in on the initial contacts.php page load, and change display would
change the actual displayed part of the <select> table, instead of changing
which element (value or name) is displayed.  Then you could conditionally
show the group name instead of the email address if the 'address' field
contained more than one \@ symbol.

Something to think about, though I realize it's a big change.  I'll dig into
it a bit but I don't have enough familiarity with the other storage formats
people use with turba to generalize this correctly.  If I get a chance to
make the change locally I'll post the diff for your inspection..

Thanks!
