Title:
  Show contact details from social accounts

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  New
Status in address-book-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As a phone user
  I want to easily look up contacts that I have either in my address book, or on a Social Account (LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, etc.)
  So that I don't have to add/merge all contacts to/with my address book that I want to find
  And the number of pure phone address book contacts stays small (only the essential contacts)
  And I don't have to do time-consuming research for contacts and their details.

  Details
  ----------
  Phone address books usually show only contacts you have stored on your phone or a cloud account (like Google Mail or the like). It would make a lot of a difference if Ubuntu's address book could integrate seamlessly with Social Accounts, and pull contact details from there without necessarily adding them or merging them with the phone contacts.

  Motivation: I don't want a million contacts in my personal address
  book, but sometimes I want to get in touch with or look up contacts
  that I have on LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, etc.  A convenient, quick
  lookup would be awesome.
