I have no particular attachment to either way of working, whether it's all in one application with bundles, or whether it's some CommunicatorAppFramework that makes a number of apps which behave in a consistent way. I suspect all-in-one is easier because some parts (IMAP, MIME, encryption) benefit from a consistent user interface, perhaps don't divide neatly between applications and would seem clunky as Services, but if someone can write it sensibly as separate applications, fantastic! The consistent interface is the important part. I don't use TalkSoup now for example, because it uses the annoying "tabbed book" interface common on other desktops instead of a GNUMail-style interface.
