Yes, at least kabcfrontend. This also breaks binary compatibility. 
Please don't remove existing methods.

That's wrong. A random string can't be used to identify an addressbook 
as it changes from call to call. This function is e.g. used to 
associate distribution lists with the corresponding addressbook.

What happens, when the addressbook is switched from one resource to the 
other? Is the addressbook data automatically converted?
