Ugh, the name parsing code needs to be rewritten, I think with a proper parser instead of a pile of regular expressions. This has been on my list for a...

That would make a tex/latex version of the records for conversion to PDF, right? The framework for that is already in place, though in EBDB it's referred to as "formatting"...

I guess my main question is, should I try to use the customize route to give users ways of altering the output, or is it reasonable to ask them to...

When you say "a window opens with the address", do you mean it pops up an `*EBDB*` buffer? I'm still having trouble picturing what's actually happening. As far as I...

That's correct! The first line in your `message-completion-alist` references `ebdb-complete-mail`, that's how it's supposed to work. Try restarting Emacs with these settings; I would expect EBDB completion to work normally...
