Hmm, I guess my concept is not perfect yet ;)
Maybe we have to use a 2 layer locking mechanism, one on file system
level where only the dcopservers have to deal with, and the other one
inside the dcopserver (like mentioned above).

No, not at all... my query language consists of a method
  searchContact( field, pattern, matching_type )
where field is a field identifier, pattern a pattern and
matching_type something like 'starts with', 'ends with', 'contains' and
'equals'.

Furthermore there will be a method which takes a list of such triples,
tied together with an 'and' or 'or' flag.

That's enough to fulfil 99% of requirements IMHO.

Ciao,
Tobias
