FWIW, the contact editor shouldn't be hard to move at all, but we'd need
e-error and possibly a few (small) utilities in libedataserverui. Also,
the API needs review, but that's not hard either, as it currently has
exactly one exported function.

And, I think we will have to do this anyway - forcing other parts of the
desktop to copy our editor code or write their own isn't acceptable.

It might be useful to write read-only "display" widgets for
contacts/appointments too. They could display the information in a
non-editable, but much more compact, form.
