The reason for this bug report was not that I tried to edit the configuration
manually, but that I tried to back up my KDE configuration and the files are
all over the place.  

I appreciate that there is a technical reasons behind it. But for a user who
knows nothing about the architecture of Akonad,i this is not very intuitive and
can be confusing. Akonadi is not the only app that does this, but it's a
particularly obvious one because it makes its own config subdirectory, but then
puts several files outside of it. I prefer how Falkon or KDE Connect do it -
one subdirectory under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME with all config data underneath it (and
ideally persistent stateful data should then go separately under
$XDG_STATE_HOME).
