Public bug reported:

Hi!

Just two  things I'd like to see in  fav contacts: If you select a
contact and hit the call button, it doesn't place the call, but it only
opens the dialer app and copies the phone number to the input field. You
have to hit the green button to place the call. I think this is
annoying. If I hit the call button, I want the person  to be called
immediately. There is no benefit of not placing the call. There are no
options in the dialer app. You just have to hit the green button.

The other thing is a little inconsistency with the dialer app. If you select a 
contact and hit More and  Open Button, you get to the properties screen of the 
contacts app. Contrary to that, if  you select contacts in the dialer app and 
select a contact you first get presented a list with the persons phone numbers 
and icons for messages and properties. If you want to call a number you have to 
tap the number. I think, most time you select a contact from fav contacs, you 
want to contact this person and for that, it should be the same routine as in 
the dialer app. Most disturbing is, because you are taken to the properties of 
the contact, you must not tap the phone number itself, but the telephone icon 
at the right edge of the screen. 
In my opinion, first thing you should be presented after hitting the more 
button, is that small list as in the dialer app. Even better, forget about the 
more button. The list could be presented immediately. So my ideal fav. contacts 
screen has the red (why not green as in the dialer app) Call button, which I 
like  and then the small list as in the dialer app (with all the contacts phone 
numbers and the message icons, and the contacts properties icon. ) This would 
hold another advantage: You see which number is called when you hit the Call 
button (supposed it always dials the first one from the list).  Right now, you 
never see which type (home, work, ...) of number is called when you tap the 
Call Button.  You don't see anything in the fav. app and the dialer app just 
shows the number, not the type of number.
