I don't see Rapportive complete without this feature. It might be hard, but it worth the trouble. So many other tools provide such feature and none are perfect, but surely they are all useful. Regardless of how Rapportive team decide to implement it, it is a must have feature and I guarantee we all will rather have it, even with limited functions, than don't have it at all.
One suggestion is to open a screen and let us (users) decide which info to add or merge (simple check boxes will do), and then everyone will be responsible for the quality and health of their Contacts in GMAIL. Rapportive will simply be providing a tool to allow users to merge/add info, that's all! Once Rapportive have it, the tool will be unbeatable.
I personally store everything that I can find. All phones, email, addresses, IMs, social network links, URLs, blogs, notes and (when I have it) a photo of the person. I also try to keep the BTDay info and some family info updated too (wife/husband name, anniversary, children's names and some personal/business reference for me to know exactly who that person is). Google Contact has an amazing feature that most people overlooked so far, which is the "relationship" field. It works similarly to what Google Circles is trying to do nowadays, linking people in "relationship circles". In Google Contacts if you reference contacts to other existing contacts using the "relationship" field, when you search for certain name, you will also get as result the people who has relationship with the user you are searching for. Very neat... :)
