Remove identities from the regular contact list?

Currently we're storing identities both on their own list and also in the "contacts" list. I think we should stop adding them to the contacts list, and instead allow editing them on a separate list that is just for identities. We've discussed this before and put it aside, but I think it's the best way to go in the long run from a usability point of view, and it'll also simplify the coding I think. So I'm suggesting we add another element to the navigation tree (that currently has email, wallet, and contacts). Above Contacts, we would add Identities. Since identities derive from contacts, we can re-use a lot of the GUI contact editing/display code.

Hmm, so identity is derived from contact, not from wallet_contact, so code reuse will be a little more difficult than I thought. I left an earlier comment in the code to consider deriving identity from wallet_contact instead. The problem with changing to that now is it would force us to invalidate a lot of existing profiles.
