My phone mixes contacts from the phone and the sim.  It has a small icon
next to each entry indicating where the entry is from, phone or sim.  It
also allows movement of an entry between these two storages.

For performance and convience (of developers), I think entries on the
sim should be imported to the phone.  But we can put a flag on these
entries indicating that changes made to them should be propagated back
(to certain level, since EDS can store more information than the sim) to
the sim.  This flag can also be used by the UI for visual feedbacks.
