I am filling a web form on Safari/iPhone and I need to enter 3 emergency contact phone numbers (relative, friend1, friend2). I don't remember all the numbers but I have them in my phone's contact list. How can I do this on iPhone/iPad if it doesn't let me run two apps at once?
It seems like they could improve that case by selectively allowing objects to be transferred from one place to another. The Address Book API already allows apps to pop up a people picker and choose contact details from it. It's too bad Safari doesn't use this. A general solution would allow apps to advertise the data that they want make available between applications.
When you come back to Safari, the page will still be there, with form fields as they were. [Though if the device runs low on memory in the interim, it may send a low-memory warning signal to Safari, which causes it to dump the current states of your pages.]
