Also, while you can't move contacts between groups on iOS, nor can you create, rename, or edit the groups themselves, you can create a new contact only in one or more specific groups by ensuring that only those groups are selected before creating the contact. IMHO it's cumbersome and half-baked, but at least it's something

Fair enough, Groups support on iOS is really incomplete and cumbersome.
To even use the solution you propose to create a Contact in a Group, you need to create a Group in the first place. But it is not possible to create a Group without a third-party Apps or without iTunes/iCloud.
Anyway what I would really want is to separate Contacts in different Categories. We can use some workaround by using Groups, but Groups is not really meant to be used as Categories.
I can try to create different Address Books, but it is not supported by Fastmail.
If someone has a better idea how to properly separate private from work contacts, I'm all ears.
Thanks
