Bug Description

device: BQ aquaris E45
OS: Ubuntu touch 15.04 r24 channel stable

As discussed in the mailinglist:
https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg14325.html

When a contactname string contains a / (fw slash), trying to export a contact info to an sms message (using the 'share' button in the title bar of the contact detail page), results in a hanging process.
A popup is displayed saying 'exporting contacts' and a spinning busy-icon. But it stays like that forever. The only way to abort is to close the contacts app.
