It'd be very nice to be able to add widgets, yeah. The problem with that is that you have to design it very carefully, because allowing Flash and Javascript can lead to significant security holes, which would be Bad. The solution's probably going to be to add specific widgets to a whitelist -- build a system of "approved"/safe widgets that we pre- screen and vet, let people configure them with their usernames/ userIDs/what-have-you, and add them that way. --D -- Denise Paolucci [email protected] Dreamwidth Studios: Open Source, open expression, open operations.
