KContacts (or any other PIM library for that matter) currently does not have any API/ABI guarantees. We try not to break interfaces unless really necessary and we try to only do those changes between major releases, especially with those "low-tier" libraries.

> - My aim was to implement a way to determine if there has been set a explicit time with the date of birth and that the time is only exported to a vcard if it has been explicitly specified. Some vcard implementations (e.g. on Android) ignore the birthday field if it comes with a time.
> The problem here is that `QDateTime` (when set with a valid date) always has a valid time (midnight by default). I therefore added the boolean `withTime` to `setBirthday()` which is stored inside `Addressee` and can be queried with `birthdayHasTime()`. I also added `setBirthday(QDate)`.
