Correct. Hopefully the following explains it a little more:

I did find a workaround, however: I just need to open and save the contact to make it local and seen by evolution and, consequently, Hermes.

Indeed, if you edit the contact locally you create a bound copy in the local storage which isn't owned by the IM account.

But I still think that this deserves a closer look.

What would you suggest should happen?
