Comment	> During some beta testing and training modules development for a Horde > rollout, there was some confusion about how to properly add attendees > for checking availability. What we discovered was that users were > assuming that the "Add people from my addressbook" would expand > whatever was typed in the "Add attendees" field. So they'd type a > first name, click on the button, and not finding the entry there, do > a search. They'd find their desired user and add them, but the "Add > attendees" field also contained their previous shortened name that > they had typed. Then when they clicked the "Add these people" > button, the real user and a bogus user would be added. > > > > What this patch does is simple. It attempts to introduce some > segregation between the "Add attendees" field, where users must be > entered exactly, and the "Add people from my Address Book". In the > logical order of things, you would likely first add people from an > addressbook, then include any manual additions, then add the list to > the overall attendees list. It should help reduce confusion between > what the two "Add" buttons do. One invokes the addressbook, the > other invokes adding attendees to the list up top. Putting them > side-by-side caused confusion with our users. Visually separating > them helped our users understand how to add attendees.
