Bug Description

So right now we have sending, and we have completion of email addresses.

However this doesn't work for multiple recipients. We need to either complete inside individual entries or, probably less nice, have multiple entries.

buttonize contacts Edit (60.4 KiB, image/png)

Here's an idea about "buttonizing" contacts.

This is good because it solves our technical issues with autocomplete, it makes a contact look "locked in", and it offers a quick delete :)

I pushed FlowBox, a wrapping horizontal box. RecipientEntry, an entry that renders *valid* addresses as buttons, so there's an added visual clue that the input makes sense. Autocompleted recipients are also rendered as buttons. Click on a button deletes the recipient. Backspace lets you edit buttonized recipients, Delete deletes them just like clicking.
