well, i've switched to SHR, and i may i first say how much it's improved 
since i last tried it - very very nice!  though i am looking forward to a 
testing branch emerging.

the wiki at 
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/SHR_User_Manual#Set_Regional_Codes suggests 
that if the regional information is set correctly in /etc/phone-utils.conf
(or by using the settings -> phone -> phoneutils settings option, i take 
it) that incoming numbers will be correctly looked up.

firstly, do others believe this is so?

secondly, does that not mean that a call from 01223456789 (in the UK) 
should match a contact listed as +441223456789, when the following 
settings apply?

international_prefix=00
national_prefix=0
country_code=44
area_code=1223

if not, how about
international_prefix=+

have i just botched a setting, or am i completely misunderstanding this?
