This is a valid point. Since we are trying to be able to do such
things as splitting the web server from the main Kolab server or even
running a complete disjoint Kolab server net having a preferences
store local to the web server would be suboptimal.

But I'm going to look at using SQLite for other subsystems in Horde
that are currently still "Database only" and that are more in the
"System" rather than "User" category.

Cheers,

Gunnar
