Oh well, i had started doing something about it but it would entail 
moving most of the duplicate code out of e-util. This ofcourse would 
mean that most of the current e-util dependencies would then also
depend on libedataserver. We never reached a consensus on whether thats
a valid thing to do. If we can have consensus on that then doing it is
just massive sed-awk operation. Ofcourse, a lot of those code werent in 
sync either when i last checked. We need to figure out if we need to 
make a new gal out of libedataserver. It needs to have stuff which most of 
evolution and e-d-s can link to.

When we get around to doing unified account management then this might be 
of great help if most of the desired structures are in libedataserver.
So i am waiting for a somebody to validate my line of reasoning here.

Cheers,
Shreyas
