* Export a set of cards:
** Opens a cata data stream, polls each provider asking if it ''canExport'' to this stream format
** Manages overall encryption of the data stream
* Supports an interator, ''getCards'', to allow clients to walk through all cards managed by all [[I-Card Provider]]s
* Manages the process of creating and deleting [[I-Card]]s via [[I-Card Provider]]s
