I'm not as much against the concept of the widget as I am against 
everything else about it.

My main concerns are:
1. Yet another widget that "someone needs" but no one is using. I'd have 
said the same about tabs (like you have in terminology). I'd rather see 
features get baked in an app before going in.
2. It's against the Elementary spirit. I think it should be marked 
differently (different namespace?) if not be in a different .so. Why? So 
developers will be aware of the consequences of their decisions.
3. Shouldn't we just create a few different edje files with different 
masking implementations that people can just load + swallow an object in 
to get the same effect? Why do we need a widget we'd have to maintain? I 
think it's a good tihng to have a few of those that implement different 
masking and can be used by developers.

Also, if you ask me, I think the addition of a new widget into 
Elementary needs to be discussed and reviewed more before the fact and 
not after.

Thoughts?
