Increase phone number field-width in Address Book window

After 18 months with no further comment, I'm repeating my suggestion/request for an increase in the size of the telephone number field in the Address Book so that the entire number is visible in the list of entries. Even though the column can be enlarged, only the first 11 characters of the number are displayed.

In the Address Book window, the maximum number of characters displayed in the Phone field is 11.  This is not enough to show the entire phone number unless all spaces/dashes are omitted, which makes the number hard to read.  This field needs to be increased so that phone numbers can be displayed in a conveniently readable format.

For North American numbers, this would require a 12- or 14-character width [123-456-7890, or (123) 456-7890] . To allow international dialing prefixes, the field should be at least 18 characters wide.

Suggest that this field be increased in the next (minor) update of Pegasus to allow and display 18 or 20 characters.

Good point but I'm sure that the fabled Address Book Overhaul will fix that! Maybe it'll come sooner rather than later. It's well overdue and the address book is now one of the standout weaknesses of Pegasus.
