Whether CoreData or some other database, I think using a database for  
the ByObject files makes a lot of sense. That might leave us with a  
small enough (and constant enough) set of prefs data to effectively  
use NSUserDefaults. As I see it, the current ByObject files are kinda  
shoehorning a contact database into the prefs system.
