Product Concept
The problem is nearly obsoleted by the fact that OpenOffice.org 2.0 will have
dedicated database files, which supersede storing database-access-information in
the configuration. Thus, the result of a run of the Address Book Auto Pilot will
be a database file, for which the user herself chose the location to store it to.

It even remains to be discussed if the Auto Pilot as such does make sense in
OpenOffice.org 2.0, since with item 'Database-11', we already create an Auto
Pilot for common database types, and the address book Auto Pilot can then be
integrated into the more generic auto pilot.

What's left is offering the user possibilities how to proceed after the database
has been created. This will include:
- integrate the post-auto-pilot dialog (saying 'we're done') into the auto pilot
itself
- open the newly created database
- create a form for the address book
- open the table data view for the address book
- open a template document which is based on the address book
