Yes, there is a sort of mad reasoning for keeping media and
communication databases, somewhat separate.

I wouldn't like to see it myself. I find the idea of having rss to be
over the hill and into the next valley. But the idea of handling media
as well, perhaps duplicating functionality in Rythembox, just doesn't
sit right with me.
The application that can handle everything is called the OS, the plugins
are called applications. You can take a look at Emacs or Firefox as
examples of what happens when you go a little crazy with the idea of
replacing everything with plugins to your favourite program.
