I was thinking about this last night, and I thought just to restrict
the information to the gadget to be anomous when the gadget loads, and only
when the user interacts with the gadget (press a link or button) to make all
the data available. The only problem with this is that the gadget could use

Another solution is to alert the user before entering a wave that has
gadgets that 'requireViewerId' to the privacy issue and allow them to

I should make clear that there is a distinction between knowing when a
participant is inside the Wave client generally (as indicated by the green
dot) and actually viewing a particular Wave. The Wave client does not
provide any indicator when a participant is simply viewing a wave, for

Could the first one be achieved by inserting a gadget, that has some
javascript which changes data on the wave say every second or so, and if it
stops changing the data, that person has stopped viewing the wave, that way,

Regarding diffs - I can see the desire for that, and we have discussed it on

over the Wave Gadget API in my applications.
