Brian wouldn't this still require the gadget to call putDataSet?  I don't 
want the gadget to have to do anything, instead I would like to put 
something in the data context for a gadget from the container.  That way 
the gadget can just use it.

You probably will have to register the
opensocial.data.DataContext.putDataSet method as an rpc method on the 
gadget
side and then use rpc to push the data from the container (similar to the
current implementation of a security token update (auth-refresh)).
