Description of problem:
When I start to copy many contacts to another address book (thanks for the functionality, looks great) I get hundreds of deduplication dialogs, which behave really weird expanding limitlessly (even wider than the width of screen). See attached screencast for illustration.

Also, in case of hundreds of contacts some [Skip All] [Add All] buttons would be really helpful (who wants to press Cancel 254 times ... that's my case now).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-3.8.5-10.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100% (happens too often for my taste)

Steps to Reproduce:
