Maybe you can find a way around it. Anyway, it should be easily possible
to use it from other programmes not using Qt (remember KTk and other KDE
aware apps).
Offering a non-GUI layer for accessing the address data should be
possible without the need to link to Qt (just a guess, enlighten me:);
after all, it's just a database.

The reason why I'm emphasising that so much is that I'd like to see many
other, non-Qt programmes offering -at least basic- KDE functionality.
Having several address databases is a very tedious affair if you use
different mailers. 
A common database, and a lib to access it would also be a nice common
denominator for the desktop projects...

Bye, and much fun on the airfield ;-)
