Because it's not supported by the rest of the code. It's not included in the vCard, so once you hit save the value is lost.

I don't like this change. We should keep this file syntax simple.

What is not simple about the syntax? This way, the mapping process is clearer. There is only one map of CSV field to vCard field rather than the CSV to internal ID, then a hard coded map of internl ID to vCard used currebtly. It also adds support variations of field names in the CSV file.

$map['anniversary'][] is not simple ;)

The reason for the nested array is to allow multiple labels to map to the same vCard field, e.g. currently the CSV labels first and given_name both map to vCard field firstname. Currently this is done via the hard coded rcube_csv2vcard::$csv2vcard_map. For me this is not simple. Adding a new field into the map means a change in 2 files, you have to know the hard coded map is there, there is no info about it in csv2vcard.inc. Using a nested array may not be simple but for me it is simpler than the current approach as it means there is only 1 place to change when adding a new field.
For #9419
Some of the mappings in the current code work (pass the tests) but the result is different to what you get if you create the same contact manually through the UI and then export it as a vCard, for example Roundcube uses
phone:mobilenotphone:celland there is noemail:preffield. I have changed the mapping so it matches the fields in the UI. I added some more aliasesrcube_vcardto show existing vCards with mismatched fields nicely.I have removed the subtype
otherfrom the IM field because that does not exist inrcube_vcardwhich means if when you hit save in the UI the value simply disappears, it’s not saved.I have removed the variable
rcube_csv2vcard::$label_mapbecause it’s a duplicate of contents of/program/localization/en_US/csv2vcard.incand just a bit confusing currently/program/localization/en_US/csv2vcard.incis not used by the code and this PR changes that.I have another reason for wanting to use
/program/localization/en_US/csv2vcard.incoverrcube_csv2vcard::$label_mapand if this PR gets merged then I will propose 1 additional change which will remove thercube_csv2vcard::$csv2vcard_mapvariable and simplify the mapping process by storing both the source and destination for the map in/program/localization/en_US/csv2vcard.incand allowing multiple sources (including multiple languages) for the same destination. This is a slightly larger and may be more controversial change hence the separate PR.
