- When suggesting to link TP contacts, we should display at least the contact ID (bob@jabber.org). That's the unique identifier of the contact and the best way to make sure we are merging the right contacts together.

- Phrasing of the first suggesting box looks weird. I certainly like Jabber but... :)

I know we are past UI freeze but any chance to get this fixed for 3.4? The current UI makes me very umconfortable as I can't know for sure the contact it's referring to.

I agree that we should show the ID for the contacts that are being suggested. The current mockups have a separate line for this:

This is related to bug 727741 and bug 696384. I'm going to make it a duplicate of the latter since I'd like to keep the discussion in one bug.
