Just to follow up on this, I added a comment to the Bugzilla bug
(#122659) that is tracking sync support for Sunbird. Hopefully that will
lead to them providing an API that we can use to sync with, and then we
can write a plugin to work with it. 

Unfortunately I don't have time to hack on Sunbird to get this API in
place myself.
