That makes sense - I'll have to give it a try.

Here's another owncloud sync guide for people (in english) I wrote - covers 
calendar, contacts, and files, minus cron: 
http://mitchellreese.id.au/owncloud-sync-on-ubuntu-touch

It would be good for someone to hack together a ui for this, and publish it 
to the open app store (no apparmor restrictions). At least until there's 
better support for carddav and caldav protocols in the main system, some 
more user friendly way of managing this would be great. 

My time is limited right now (in between several large theatre projects), 
however I'm happy to work with someone else keen to get this happening. 
UI's are not my strong point...
