SQLite is *way* overkill. The local library search and the gedasymbols
search works perfectly fine and perceptually infinitely fast. The biggest
problem that I see is that there is a split namespace. You have to search
one and then the other. That's why I propose that we should move the set of
symbols and footprints into gedasymbols, and then pull down a copy of
gedasymbols at install time.

As Igor points out, though, people may have a good reason to keep their
custom parts local. So maybe a local folder that doesn't get synced back to
gedasymbols is still needed? But there should be a 'public' folder which
lets you contribute your footprints and symbols even more easily than DJ
has set it up now.
