Org-contacts and extra spaces

Org-contacts and extra spaces

Hi,

If I complete an email address with org-contacts, I get extra spaces
after the email address:

  To: Jane Doe <jane.doe@example.com>_ _ _ _[cursor]

Is this just me? Before I go digging for a solution, has anyone else
encountered and fixed this?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm

The only time I ever saw something like this was in message-mode, using
C-M-i/completion-at-point to complete mail addresses. If I recall
correctly, it was caused by message-mode's idiosyncratic partial support
for the built-in completion mechanisms. In EBDB I had to add a cleanup
function to `choose-completion-string-functions' to remove the
whitespace.

Could that be what you're seeing?
