I started cleaning my mobile phone contacts by merging contact phone numbers on my mobile phone with contact email addresses on my google account. Overall it works great, although I agree it could be a little more clever at identifying duplicates. As you noted, the All Contacts / My Contacts stuff is not very practical. I think we are mostly missing a view of contacts that are in All Contacts but are not in My Contacts. I ended up having to click each contact one by one to make sure it was in My Contacts... Not so elegant. ;-) I used Merge extensively recently, since I went through the process of syncing my phone contacts/calendars with my Google account.
