Running the flatten shares upgrade can corrupt various user prefs related to address books. This is due to the fact that: 1) Outside of a user session, we could only upgrade SQL pref backends. 2) Prior to the upgrade, the user's default address book a particular share enabled source was simply the name of the source ('localsql' for example). In the upgrade script we would have to know if a particular entry in the pref refers to a share enabled default address book, a share-enabled non-default address book or an address book from a non-share enabled source. This might be possible to do, but again, would only be doable from SQL pref backends. We either need to document that user's prefs might need resetting for non SQL pref backends or figure out a way to do this from within the user's session .
