just curious why the new multi-option for website doesn't have a primary selection option? i can see why it doesn't lend itself toward needing that as much as the other communication fields, but still think that it would be useful, especially when it comes to the export function.

also, the option group values for the website type should have a link in the main administer screen, and probably in the nav menu as well.

lastly, i notice there is a "mobile phone type" option, but that field isn't accessible when creating a phone number of type mobile. is it intended to be used elsewhere? it's currently present on the option list menu, and probably doesn't need to be.

I'd vote for adding the primary option. For example a person might have a facebook, twitter, myspace account, but one would be identified as the primary social networking account and included in exports. Not a big need, and probably less important than the other communication fields, but still useful. And it would retain consistent structure with the rest of the fields in this section.

Re: mobile option --
I'm not referring to the option to identify a phone number as mobile. I'm referring to the mobile provider options:

I don't see where those are ever exposed to the interface. I think they're a remnant from an early attempt at CiviSMS. If so, we may want to remove them from the option list choices, and from the nav menu.
