This relates to action-175.
The general process we would need to following for registering
application/widget as a new Internet media type is documented here:
  http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype.html
In a nutshell, what we would need to do is:
  1. Write up and include within the "Widgets 1.0: Packaging and
     Configuration" spec itself a section that defines the
     application/widget media type, following the procedures in
     RFC 4288 and, more specifically, the template in section 10
     of RFC 4288.
  2. At some point when the spec is at a reasonable level of
     stability (e.g., at CR or at the time it first goes to LC),
     e-mail a plain-text version of the application/widget draft
     definition/proposal to ietf-types@iana.org, then respond to
     any comments we get there, and wait for the proposal to come
     up on the IAB agenda and to either be approved or rejected.
That's it.
