This fits into the further plans for adding multi-transport messaging, but can be done already now. Currently, if the contact e.g. AEAP-moves to another address, its color changes. So, the suggestion is:

  • Use the fingerprint returned by Peerstate::peek_key_fingerprint(false), if any. It can return an unverified Autocrypt key fingerprint, but i think that's fine, maybe even good if the color changes if the contact verification breaks.
  • Otherwise use the email address as currently.
