Sort contacts by Address
Some people find it easier to remember addresses better than a contact's name. It would be good to have the option to view the address where the contacts live (plus sorting)

Unfortunately the address listed against the contacts is a freeform text field. If this was to be sorted it would be sorted by the first characters in the field – most likely the street number (and or anything appearing before the address) which wouldn’t lead to the results you would expect.

The above idea is good - whist I understand why it can't be sorted, having the address showing the field, like mobile & email etc makes it easier to find which person I might be looking for. Eg: If I search "Smith" and there are 13 Smiths in the database, I'd be able to identify the one I am looking for by the address.
