I suggest one, other or preferably both of: 1 - Use a basic format that EDS, Akonadi, OpenSync and other sync tools can already understand. Such a format should already have libs available to make using it simple and robust. vCard 3.0 with the X-SIP extended attribute is my best guess for this. 2 - Make it plugable. People can add support for other backends if they don't like your choice(s), or you can add them as demand appears.
Whatever the individual merits of Akonadi, EDS, CouchDB/desktopcouch, Google and so on, none are suitable for all situations where linphone might be deployed.
