For all interested, It seems that we have been encountering a combination of http://code.google.com/p/google-wave-resources/issues/detail?id=254&can=1&q=robot%20gadget&colspec=Stars%20ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Milestone%20Owner%20Summary%20Internal#c4and http://code.google.com/p/google-wave-resources/issues/detail?id=278.
