Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Start by locating the contacts list UI and the existing group/ungrouped filtering controls described in the issue, then trace how contact books are loaded and selected. Done means each addressbook can be shown independently from the left-side list, with behavior covered by the relevant frontend tests if they exist.
