In our system when a widget is instantiated we generate our own instance hashes which we append to the widget URL as a parameter, and our Storage implementation uses this parameter when it needs to make a request back to our prefs web service to load preferences, or to set a preference. I imagine any UA would put a similar mechanism in place in its Storage implementation to sandbox the preferences for widget instances; does that need to be specified?
