It's probably easier to implement yourself, tailoring it to your needs than it is to try to hack thickbox to your will.
I had just such an instance on a project at work. There are a few issues to work around that may or may not even apply for RoundCube.
Scrolling: I'm sure this won't apply, but the site I implemented it on had very long pages. I had to make it appear on screen no matter the scroll position.
Backing Fade: In thickbox etc, there is a translucent grey covering over the rest of the page to make the popup modal. This can be tricky to position in all browsers. If you're just wanting to throw a popup without blacking the background out, no problem!
I think you could probably get away with a basic positioned div, using js to load in the address book for this app, but I'm no UI designer. :)

About the last feature that I sad: Let's get a situation: you are on the compose page writing some
email..
so you wan't to see the address book to add more recipients. When you click Address Book, you "lost" your email (you can save in
the
draft)... Does you guys have a patch to solve this?
Ideally the address book shows up in a Thickbox as a layer above the mail, so there is no need to save the mail.
Good idea, though I am not sure if I want thickbox because this would add another dependency and thickbox is (apart from some CSS) not very customizable and we technically would need to re-customize it when we update it.
Not sure if it's hard to implement that yourself with jQuery (since that is what we'll be using in the future).
