first step:

you can customize it by inheriting base.contact template in XML, for example here is how to add additional field "my_field" just before address in address widget:

<template id="contact" inherit_id="base.contact">
<xpath expr="//address/div" position="after">
<div t-if="object.my_field and 'my_field' in fields"
class='css_editable_mode_hidden'>
<div itemprop="my_field" t-esc="object.my_field"
style="margin-top:4px;margin-bottom:4px;font-size:10px;"/>
</div>
</xpath>
</template>

second step:

then in your qweb template, add "my_field" to fields list:

... t-field-options='{"widget": "contact", "fields": ["address","my_field","name",...],...

if your template is a new one, you need simply add my_field to "fields" list as shown above, if you extending some existing template, then you can inherit it and replace existing widget entry, using position="replace" property in xpath tag...

Thanks for helping me Temur.

This should've been the accepted answer ages ago :)

You could also inherit "base.contact_name" and modify it in the QWeb widget template right away.
