I think we have to keep the gadget concept as is, and bring in a new concept. This was the initial plan with the widgets, but we removed it due to above complications. I think we can bring it back, and use WebComponent to implement it. But unfortunately it’s not implanted in all browsers. But HTML template is [1]. Can you please do some research on this and find if we can leverage this to implement the requirement. Another option is to use WebComponent polyfills.
