Indeed. A fundamentally different approach to managing data. Not necessarily better or worse, but different.
Interesting to note that the latest versions of Android are also adopting a fairly similar system of having data "owned" by apps. It's a method which has many benefits from a security perspective; no app is able to "snoop" on another app's data.
