I had some problems with the way the "link type" allows the administrator to choose from the same options available in the display settings for the field. When the link type is set to direct mailto, I can still choose "contact form" in the display settings but the contact form will be broken because the contact page function checks the link type of the field.

unless i'm missing something, could this patch solve this little bit of confusion?

I was getting very confused by this issue, then found the patch here. I have tested and it worked great. Removed the options from the field settings page and uses the display field selection instead.

This patch should be applied to dev.

Patch is not relative to drupal root. Not sure if that matters.
