I think that is a general problem of all resources. When you switch from 
one resource to another in kcmkabc, a dialog should open which offers 
to convert the data to the new format. This conversion should then be 
done by loading the data wih the old resource and writing it with the 
new one.

Yes, otherwise users would have to put in their data again.

The actual locking could be done by the same mechanism as now. What 
needs to be changed is the change notification, because now you don't 
have to watch one file, but multiple files. Couldn't this be done by 
KDirWatcher?
