KAddressBook should ease migration from kab3 and when switching to a different
computer for the casual user. Thus I suggest to run a import wizard on first
run, which offers the following choices:

1) Importing an existing kab3 addressbook std.vcf file. It should auto-detect
the file and auto select the option when it is found (also see bug #223139).

2) Importing an existing addressbook file in another format... currently
KAddressBook / Akonadi seems to support vCard, CSV, LDIF, GMX file based
addressbooks. The wizard should try to auto-detect the format of the address
book file the user points at.

3) Importing an existing addressbook from an LDAP / AD server.
