In fact you can export and import from vcf files. The code is already
implemented in the App.

If you click on "share" button it will generate a vcard with this
contact (or multiple contacts, if you are in multi selection mode).

The problem is that, we do not have a app that accept a vcard and save
it to disk, or vice-versa.

We have two options here.

1 - Add a explicitly option on address-book-app to save/restore file to disk 
(which can be complicated since we will need to open a file dialog asking where 
to save/read it).
2 - Implement support for that on file manage. This will be very simple since 
we only need to receive it from content-hub and write it on disk. The sabe is 
valid if a user click on a vcard file it should use content-hub to import it to 
address-book.
