I'm not completely happy with the list view. The only blocking problem is that the person I email near every day does not even appear under the My Contacts subsection. I've actually found out the reason while writing - apparently My Contacts is a group and not all users are added. Is there no all contacts view? Cosmetically, I don't really like a list as I can't tell from a glance who is who. I'd quite like a small magazine-style avatar+name+email block - on a grid 3/4 wide and 4 down for example. I can't drag groups onto users as I do with labels which is a little counter-intuitive. All-in-all though it's not a bad addition, just not a complete one. Finally I'd like an option to remove the Tasks link, rather than choosing one of three to show. Mostly small things but things I'd like.
