[idea] Seperation of area code and phone number

When entering or displaying a phone number, Sailfish currently shows it as one single element. Other OS - I've seen it on iOS and android - have a nice feature, they seperate the area code from the rest of the number by inserting a space between them. Here is an example: http://media2.giga.de/2013/08/ios7b5_telefon.jpg

I've owned an iPhone for a couple of month and really liked that feature. It looks nice and makes it easier to recognize the phone number (e.g. when dictating it to a fried).

According to Sailfish design principles, Sailfish appreciates "legible texts". So I think that this feature pefectly fits to the Sailfish design and is worth a look at.

What do you think?

edit: I'd like to mention that I mean to add the spaces only for displaying purposes. As suggested by link text, phone numbers should not contain spaces when they are stored.
