Reading http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-syntax.html#Node_Properties
I just realised that my clumsy property keys are against the rules since
they are containing whitespace characters.

Nevertheless I still like the idea of having a Type, a number and a
Value for every property that can occur multiple.  Thus the properties
can be easily mapped to the VCard scheme as well as to any other scheme.

Thus, what I would like to propose is the following scheme:

#+BEGIN_SRC org
:PROPERTIES:
:Contact_Type:     individual or organisation
:Organization_1_Type: company
:Organization_1_Name: The company name
:Organization_1_Department: department, business unit, division
:Organization_1_Title: job title of an individual
:FN: The full name
:GivenName:
:FamilyName:
:Name_Prefix:
:Name_Suffix:
:Nickname:
:Email_1_Type: Work
:Email_1_Value: name@company.fr
:Address_1_Type: Work
:Address_1_Street: The street can contain multiple lines \\ second line
:Address_1_Box: Postal box
:Address_1_Extension: other extensions that can occur in addresses
:Address_1_City: The city
:Address_1_Region: Region, federal state etc.
:Address_1_Code: 12100
:Address_1_Country: France
:Phone_1_Type: Work
:Phone_1_Value: +33 565 623740
:Phone_2_Type: Fax
:Phone_2_Value: +33 565 623070
:Website_1_Type: Work
:Website_1_Value: http://www.domain.fr
:Birthday:
:Language:     en
:Salutation:
:END:
#+END_SRC

Other user defined properties can be added and mapped to the appropriate
user defined keys during export.


Further remarks regarding my last e-mail:

> #+BEGIN: propview :id "39584cda-bff0-4b8a-9460-4fefb5b5922c" :cols (Given\ Name Family\ Name ITEM Name\ Prefix Name\ Suffix Nickname EMAIL Phone\ 1\ -\ Type Phone\ 1\ -\ Value Phone\ 2\ -\ Type Phone\ 2\ -\ Value Phone\ 3\ -\ Type Phone\ 3\ -\ Value Phone\ 4\ -\ Type Phone\ 4\ -\ Value Address\ 1\ -\ Type Address\ 1\ -\ Street Address\ 1\ -\ PO\ Box Address\ 1\ -\ Extended\ Address Address\ 1\ -\ City Address\ 1\ -\ Region Address\ 1\ -\ Postal\ Code Address\ 1\ -\ Country Address\ 2\ -\ Type Address\ 2\ -\ Street Address\ 2\ -\ PO\ Box Address\ 2\ -\ Extended\ Address Address\ 2\ -\ City Address\ 2\ -\ Region Address\ 2\ -\ Postal\ Code Address\ 2\ -\ Country Address\ 3\ -\ Type Address\ 3\ -\ Street Address\ 3\ -\ PO\ Box Address\ 3\ -\ Extended\ Address Address\ 3\ -\ City Address\ 3\ -\ Region Address\ 3\ -\ Postal\ Code Address\ 3\ -\ Country Organization\ 1\ -\ Name Birthday Organization\ 1\ -\ Title Organization\ 1\ -\ Department Website\ 1\ -\ Type Website\ 1\ -\ Value LANG TAGS) :colnames ("Given Name" "Family Name" "Name" "Name Prefix" "Name Suffix" "Nickname" "E-mail 1 - Value" "Phone 1 - Type" "Phone 1 - Value" "Phone 2 - Type" "Phone 2 - Value" "Phone 3 - Type" "Phone 3 - Value" "Phone 4 - Type" "Phone 4 - Value" "Address 1 - Type" "Address 1 - Street" "Address 1 - PO Box" "Address 1 - Extended Address" "Address 1 - City" "Address 1 - Region" "Address 1 - Postal Code" "Address 1 - Country" "Address 2 - Type" "Address 2 - Street" "Address 2 - PO Box" "Address 2 - Extended Address" "Address 2 - City" "Address 2 - Region" "Address 2 - Postal Code" "Address 2 - Country" "Address 3 - Type" "Address 3 - Street" "Address 3 - PO Box" "Address 3 - Extended Address" "Address 3 - City" "Address 3 - Region" "Address 3 - Postal Code" "Address 3 - Country" "Organization 1 - Name" "Birthday" "Oganization 1 - Title" "Organization 1 - Department" "Website 1 - Type" "Website 1 - Value" "Language" "org-tags") :defaultval "" :inherit (TAGS) :conds ((stringp KIND)) :match "-ARCHIVE" :noquote t

Here I forgot to copy the #+END: 

Please note that org-collector tries to convert property values from
strings into numbers if possible.  For postal codes with leading Zeros
this can lead to unexpected results.  I did not find any other way to
solve this problem than to add a national code like in the following
example

:Address_1_Code:  01169
would lead to "1169" in the propview table.

so I replaced it with
:Address_1_Code:  DE-01169
