Developer notes: Probably need to use the following API functions: https://core.telegram.org/tdlib/docs/classtd_1_1td__api_1_1get_contacts.html https://core.telegram.org/tdlib/docs/classtd_1_1td__api_1_1create_private_chat.html

But need to decide on a suitable UI for contact list/search first.

Also to be taken into consideration when adding this feature: Archive chat list support has been added in TDLib 1.6.0: https://github.com/tdlib/td/issues/554

Support for this has been implemented in e5b20c0 - press CTRL-S to search contacts. Ping @alohawolf
