Can Gmail offer an LDAP service so that when I use Apple Mail, I get contact suggestions?
I'd love it if the address completion that I get when using http://mail.google.com/mail in the To: field was available to desktop email applications like Apple's Mail application through LDAP.
I’m asking for more features

Inappropriate?There's apparently an opensource product called "GCalDaemon" that will create an offline copy of your Gmail Calendar, but also give you LDAP access to a local copy of your Gmail address book:

(It's definitely not simple to install, but people seem to like it once they have.) Here's a LifeHacker overview:

(By the way, I _totally_ second a vote for native LDAP access to Gmail contacts. Seems like a logical, pretty obvious extension after IMAP.) -

Inappropriate?ditto! would love to have thunderbird access my google contacts. (hopefully someday google contacts will be a more rich database as well)
