I'm not sure how this fits, but in our version of this, we were planning
to allow multiple icons...
<icon size="128">myIcon.png</icon>
<icon size="256">myIconBIG.png</icon>
How would that fit into an RSS solution? I'm curious because it actually
sounds quite interesting.

It's not clear why you need a new XML format for config. It seems
rather optimistic to assume that a format almost identical to RSS/Atom

started out.

All of the widget platforms will have to ship a feed parser anyway.
Use a content model identical to an Atom Entry or RSS2 Item, so we
don't get another title/link/description format and accompanying
semantic drift. It occurs to me that a feed of widgets might be neat.
