I am using the toolbar to provide to allow further embeds of the
gadget via the htmlcode option (as well as access to the underlying
table). The problem is that the popup window is so wide, it is
difficult to copy the code. The popup is wider than the iframe, (even
with a fairly large window) so it gets cut off on one end. You have to
not only scroll, but also reposition the popup, and you can't do both
at once. Select all selects too much, and I have a hard time getting
the whole string selected. I have to set the cursor at the beginning,
then move the popup window left, then scroll to the end, then do a
shift-click to get the whole string. And if I mess up in some way, I
can't get the popup moved back to the right to start over.

The script code that appears when you click Publish gadget... from the
top right corner menu on the docs spreadsheet, in contrast, has a
taller window and the code wraps, so you can see it all at once. It
also is not constrained by the gadget's iframe, so it can extend
beyond the borders of the gadget. It is much easier to copy from that
popup.

Another issue is that the iframe code generated doesn't work very well
unless you add some more code to set the height and width (I also want
to set no scrolling and turn off the border). So it would be great to
have another parameter that would let you insert additional parameters
into the iframe code after the src string. Otherwise I find that the
iframe gets assigned a postage-stamp-like size and is pretty useless.
