Why do no address book programs or features seem to have a "merge" feature? Assisted joining of two contacts into one would be a big help in some circumstances, particularly when there are a few synchronisations going on. I have not seen such a feature in Outlook, Thunderbird, Lotus Notes, GMail, Hotmail or Yahoo Mail. My phone does not provide it, nor does the PC software to which it can connect. Neither does any synchronisation program provide it, as far as I can tell, and they are the ones most likely to produce the problem of duplicated contacts. Has nobody ever considered such a thing?

PS - I am often disappointed by address book software.
PPS - That is the usual prelude to a programmer writing something of his own.
