Yves,

It looks like this is still a bug in the dev version as well.  Reading the code
I believe you can work around this problem by supplying either the
"contactperson" or "contactorganization" metadata as well which causes a
slightly different code path to be used.  I imagine this is why this hasn't
already been commented on.

Please file a bug on this I'm sure Assefa, Tom or someone will fix the code.

Best regards,
