Whoopee! Finally fixed in Evolution 3.2 in Ubuntu 11.10.
And reference my my wondering above in #6: "The nuisance part of that is that all my calendar, contacts, and so on and so forth would need migrating if I opted to go the Thunderbird way. Let alone what happens to syncing contacts via Ubuntu One," - the Ubuntu One plugin in Thuderbird pulls in the address book almost instantaneously when it is installed.
