Bug Description

Long contact name handling seems to behave somewhat erratically but normally ends in "...". The expectation is that turning the screen sideways would allow the full contact name to be shown but the app doesn't seem to support this yet.

------ UX comment------

The desired solution is that the address book app will be able to rotate into landscape. There is a new header design for landscape on mobile and it will be part of the UI toolkit. Once the header lands, then the address book can use it.
As for the long name issue: Once the AB rotates into landscape, long names should have more space to be displayed.

The new header design for mobile landscape can be found here:
