Not that sure. I'm talking about daemon, not embeddable application.
multisyncd should be as small as possible.
*Ideally*, none of multisyncd and device conduits should depend on
GNOME. That could make multisync the de-facto synchronization system for
UNIX desktop (what about KDE users). 

Of course that is my only opinion, but given the effort put in
freedesktop.org to get unified desktops, I don't see why multisync could
not attempt to do the same and be part of the game. Anyway it is your
baby and you can disagree if you want. :-)

Provide a bookmark synchronization conduit and you'd get the web browser
to use it.
Otherwise, for now, any PIM (Evolution, KOrganizer).
