Title:
  [Dialer] ubuntu touch bad dialer/contacts integration

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Opinion
Status in dialer-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I' using my ubuntu phone as a telephone mostly! I find it somewhat
  annoying, how much steps have to be taken to select a contact from
  contacts. These are the steps:

  1) Hit Contacts
  2) Hit the magnifying glass
  3) Enter filter string
  4) Select contact
  5) Select number
  6) Hit the green Button.

  This is 6 Buttons - as much as a telephone number has (in Austria)

  I'd like to have a filter field in the dialer app, with contacts
  popping up as I enter the filter string. Contacts should be shown in a
  tree view with the numbers visible. If I hit a number, it will be
  dialed immediately.

  A bit the same, when using the 'recent' view of the dialer or
  favourites.  If you select a call, it won't be dialed immediately. The
  number is transferred to the dialer field and you have to hit the
  green button.

  PS: I'd like to contrubute to the touch project. I'm a software
  developer (mostly doing C/C++/Qt). If someone would guide me, I'd do
  some work.
