Description
Today we have a way to disable the auto link adding anti-link rules, but this cause a problem because this change the contact data.
I am trying to find a way to disable the auto link in a general way that does not affect the contact data and I can easily link the contact manually if the user wants.
My current implementation add a global anti link for every new contact. And this cause some problems:
1 - Working with contact sync, will cause the contact data change after add the global anti link flag, and this will cause the contact to be synced again. (this is not good in a account with more than 1000 contacts this can be very expensive).
2 - To manually link a contact you need to remove the global anti link. Removing the global anti-link will allow the contact to get auto linked again.
