Maybe re-writing bbdb "right" as part of Emacs might help. It seems
like a bit of work, though.

Having a simple addressbook as part of Emacs that interacts nicely
with MUAs and other pieces would be cool.

With respect to usability I haven't seen anything even close to bbdb,
though.

Greetings,
Jochen
