Because people are already trying to use bitcoin in shops. In the german section of the forum, there is a post about a restaurant in Berlin, where one can pay the bill with bitcoins. The biggest problem seems to how to enter the address. Saying and typing the adress is way too cumbersome. What they did first, was to send an email with the address. But using the cellphone to get the address by decoding a QR-code is the common opinion on how one should do that. In the sense of the workflow, copying to clipboard or generating a QR-code is the same thing.

Hm interesting. Where would they paste the QR-code after copying it to clipboard? Or would they print it?

They would either save it, print it, or simply let people scan it from their screen with their cellphone. IMHO it would be nice to also save the code and put it on posters, cards, signs etc. when you want people to tip you - like in all these forum signatures.

Another idea: In the send-dialog: When sending to an unknown address, can the user type in a string which is then included in the adressbook with the address?

I've just implemented this and pushed it to github.

Can you replace the address field and the address book button by a pull-down field which combines the functionality? Is the add to address book line greyed out, when one uses an address from the address book? I suggest that the checkbox is deactivated by default, and automatically activates, when the user enters anything in the name field.
