Hard to add new Contact after failed search for existing contact

A typical scenario for adding a new Contact is the following:
1. Clicking the Windows Contacts icon (with target "%ProgramFiles%\Windows
Mail\wab.exe") to open Contacts
2. Typing the name into the Search box and finding it absent
3. Wanting a "New Contact" button to click to create a new contact.

However, after searching there is no "New Contact" button, even though there
was such a button when you had opened up Windows Contacts originally. A
workaround is to click the Windows Contacts icon again to open a new Windows
Contacts instance, but it would be better if there were a New Contact button
after a search in Windows Contacts.

This was more convenient in Windows XP.
