More testing revealed another issue. If all or part of the sync list is
entered in the text box with a display name containing non-ascii, the
browser may encode those characters as numeric HTML entities which
thoroughly confused email.Utils.parseaddr().

A revised patch that addresses this and makes a few cosmetic changes is
attached.
