Contact v5.3.0 does not present custom "group properties" in the new UI

[mneiger]

Describe the bug

group properties as defined in vacrd RFCs v3 used to be viewable and editable in the old UI.
Now they are neither visible nor editable.

Steps to reproduce

import a vcf similar to

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
UID:rakefet-0c992
ADR;TYPE=HOME:;;Avenue de l'AAA;Bruxelles;;1180;Belgium
BDAY;VALUE=DATE:19540321
EMAIL;TYPE=HOME:cxxxxxxxxk@hotmail.com
FN:Cécile Maaaak
GENDER:F
N:Maaaak;Cécile;;;
RAK1.NICKNAME:Asher
RAK2.NOTE:archivé sept 2014
RAKR.RELATED;TYPE=SPOUSE;VALUE=TEXT:Julian Serais
REV;VALUE=DATE-AND-OR-TIME:20230311T095516Z
TEL;TYPE=CELL:+32 48 010101001
RAK1.X-ABLABEL:Hebrew
RAK2.X-ABLABEL:Rak-Note Fam
END:VCARD

Expected behavior

the properties grouped as RAKxx. (RAK1, RAK2 RAKR for nickname note and related) used to be displayed and usable as supplemental fields.

it is true that such group fields are application specific and could be ignored, according to the RFC. Theses specific group properties and contact are created by an external app, but it is critical for us to be able to see these fields in nextcloud and this used to work well in the previous contact app.

Perhaps a list or regex of group could be explicitely specified in order to be allowed in nextcloud contact app. This would allow to respect the new default behaviour and avoid messing with custom data.

Actual behavior

the said fields are invisible in the UI

I've been adding custom types for phone numbers (instead default Home, Mobile, Work etc) for a long time and
after upgrading to Contacts 5.3.0 I've noticed:

• Phones with custom types neither shown nor editable
• After creating new phone with custom type it is created with default type Home
• After looking at the vcf file, it looks like Nextcloud's approach to storing these types has changed several times, as a result, support was completely gone

NEXTCLOUD3.GROUP4TEL:phone number
GROUP1.X-ABLABEL:some text
GROUP2.X-ABLABEL:some text
GROUP3.X-ABLABEL:some text
GROUP4.X-ABLABEL:some text

I have the same effect as reported originally in #1842:
custom phone types when added on the phone, after sync do not show on nextcloud in contacts 5.3.2 but they do work OK on nextcloud in contacts 4.2.5

[NotSoFunnyClown]

Any fix for that? UI is not really usable if editing contacts on e.g. an iPhone. They just disappear in the contacts UI

[FreePlague]

Half-fix in 5.5.0. The old ones are displayed, but new ones cannot be created.

[FreePlague]

Regression in 6.1.0 (maybe earlier). Nextcloud 30.0.1
Custom phone labels not displaying anymore. Contacts still have old labels created before (can see it in exported vcf).
Maybe related #4188
