Description
- Create new Address Book in Contacts application.
- Create "Some" contact
- Disable Address Book
- It is removed from contact list
But you still be able to find "Some" contact in the global contact search in upper right corner.
Also you can find contacts from disabled Address Book in other apps: Mail, Calendar, file sharing etc.
I believe contacts from disabled address book should not be listed in other apps and global search.
My use case:
I moved very very old contacts to "Archive" Address book and disabled it. I doubt whether I'll need it some day, but just in case. When I search contact I have to always think "Who is that guy?"

Research direction
Start with the global contact search in the upper-right corner and compare it with the Contacts application's disabled address-book behavior. Trace how contacts from disabled address books appear in Mail, Calendar, file sharing, and other apps; done means those contacts are excluded consistently while enabled-address-book contacts remain searchable.
