Hello James,

I agree with your mini specification.

I would suggest to add some wording about the contact:street nodes,
especially if their number changes with the update done.
It would probably be superfluous but I believe in this case it is
better to over specify things instead of under-specify since this
contact:update issue is quite old, so it is a great idea and work to
specify it clearly and completely now once for all.
