For my part, I call a number from the browser ca 1 out of 100 calls. 99
calls are from the address book, from the messaging app or from the
history. That makes this behavior unwanted 99% of the time.

Maybe the dialer app can add a setting that changes this behaviour? E.g.
“Allow apps to place calls [all|some|none]”?

Title:
  [Dialer] [Address Book] “Call” icon does not actually place a call

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Won't Fix
Status in address-book-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in dialer-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Reproduce:
  Open address-book-app, choose contact. Press the phone-off-the-hook icon to place a call

  What happens:
  The dialer-app opens with a number pre-filled.

  What I expected would happen:
  I expected the call to be placed.

  Rationale:
  The phone-off-the-hook icon in dialer-app represents placing a call, but not in address-book-app. Why the inconsistency?

  -------- UX comment ------

  This is intended behaviour. Every single time users tap the `call`
  icon from an other app, the dialer is pre-populated with that number.
  A 2nd tap is required to finally place the call. This way we avoid
  e.g. a popup in the browser asking user if they really want to call
  that number.

  Please refer to the latest UX spec:
