QBE & CRUD.  Let me use my database like a database;  and see all [or
most] of the information laid out in a nice form.  That's my biggest
irritant with most PIMs.  And QBE isn't really that hard to implement.

Also provide some kind of D-Bus [or work alike] API so that it is
possible to manage the data in a scriptly fashion.
