Description

The new Location field is marked red and tells me to enter an URL, even when it is pre-filled with coordinates.

  1. Open a contact.
  2. Add the Location field.
  3. It's red already, even though it was just pre-filled with the default.

Additionally, the default value uses a semicolon ; to separate the coordinates, but after saving and loading it has changed to a comma ,.

Research direction

Reproduce the problem by adding a Location field to a contact and checking its initial validation state, then save and reload the contact to compare the coordinate separator. Trace the Location field's validation and value serialization; done means valid pre-filled coordinates are not marked red and the separator remains consistent.
