Contact sync, encrypted Database and Privacy
syncing contacts with the android contacts adress book is useful because then the caller is identified.
security-issue: these contacts may be read by other applications
deja allows password-protecting end encrypting all its data, but allthough the password is not entered (contacts should be protected) all deja-contacts that are synced with the android adress book are still visible.
maybe one would like to have them removed when the deja-password expires - bit in this case the caller is not identified.
I could think about the following solutions:
1. Deja plugs in the phone app end identifies the caller (my favorite). The user should be able to define if this shall also be done if the password has expired. In this case the user needs to enter the deja-pasword at bootup and then the password-expiration only blocks the deja-app, but not this feature.
2. Deja deletes all his entries from the android adress-book when the pasword expires (and at shutdown) and reinstalls them when the password is entered again. In this case callers are not identified when the password has expired.
