The general idea is that application which make use of a certain type of data also provide the interface for managing the respective resources. Provide in this context usually means that they show interface elements that are available in the base libraries, i.e. they don't have to implement these themselves. KAddressBook, for example, has an "Add Addressbook" action, but it might make sense to complement this with a "Manage Addressbooks" type functionality somewhere in the config dialog, e.g. like KMail currently does with accounts. I also hope the generic managment interface can be returned to the control center, just like there is one for KResource based access methods.
