Hmmm okay.

One of the problems here is modularity. When you write KDE driver, you don't 
want to put your code in common with evolution's driver because evolution is 
not under your responsability. Even if you did the effort, you would not be 
sure that the evolution guys would appreciate: what if you introduce new 
bugs?

Hmmm. Yes. No. Don't know. I still prefer code that uses only the necessary 
minimalistic stuff. But that's perharps more an esthetical preoccupation than 
a rational one, yes...
