I haven't planned for a dbus interface, though I have a slightly related plan to provide a contact manager backend for the qt-mobility contacts api.

Your idea is interesting in the sense that just providing a dbus api will be a good stop-gap solution.
However, the "future" for all plugins like this will almost certainly be either telepathy or qtmobility based (or both).
That doesn't mean dBus will be ignored - telepathy depends on dbus. dbus is too "low level" an API.

I'll keep it in mind when I start coalescing some classes into a plugin form.
