What about the following solution: when you choose the name from the
phonebook, open the next window.
1. When there's only one number for the entry it is automatically chosen.

[There's such thing as the preferred number. Question: does it need to be
set? Does it need to be equal to any of the other numbers?]

2. When the preferred number is set and there's more then one entry:
 - two buttons: 'Use the preferred number' and 'Use the other number'
 - first button chosen automatically uses the preferred number
 - second one displays the window with a list of the numbers of the entry
 - when you choose the number it gets into the sms window

Would it be hard to implement? Is it worth to but the ammount of work in
xgnokii?

And we would need a list of the phones that can have more then one number.
Anyone to prepare the list?
