Even assuming this is rectified, which it should be, it is not a valid reason to remove
group by account. It still does not solve having to split up meta contacts via
this scheme, and it also forces the user to re-arrange their contact lists all
over the place making groups for every account.

Yes after 3.2 we should get multiple grouping worked out.
