I sent back into Kontact today and tried to edit a group. This time it didn't crash (not sure if there has been updates since I last tried). It said 3 contacts didn't exist any more, but I could add a new one. I checked some time later and it was still there. Did you say you are on 4.7.x? I'd certainly update if that is so. Not all is solved, but much is improved.
