The contacts app uses the EDS (Evolution Data Service?) as its backend. This allows people to use evolution API and D-Bus. So in theory, making it work with evolution on the desktop would make it work with the built-in contacts support that comes with the OS though I have a suspicion that something is slightly different but cannot test it with my ancient 770. We might need to switch to DBus or use in tandem a library called abook for Maemo contacts to work.
