After thinking a little bit (as much as I can ...) about this, I won't be implementing such a web search in phonelink because it should be so configurable that I think it should be a different project if you want to make it work everywhere and with any reverse phonebook provider ...
I will however generate a DBus Signal with the number and the name (if the phone gives one) so that any application can subscribe to it and act as appropriate ...
I hope I'm not to disapointing ...
