Comments on Widgets spec

Hi,

5.3 Zip Relative Paths has the following bugs:
 * the ABNF for zip-rel-path uses "localized-folder", but only
"locale-folder" is defined
 * the third rule for the conformance checker should be:
 "A CC must inform the author of any Zip relative paths whose length
exceed 120 characters" (rather than "bytes").

http://www.w3.org/TR/widgets/#conformance-checker-behavior4 seems to be
misplaced under 7.2 instead of 7.3

There are quite a few aspects that make a zip archive an invalid widget
described in the processing section, but which are not highlighted as
conformance checker requirements, e.g:
 * Step 1  labels an archive with a wrong media type as invalid
 * Step 2 adds as cause of invalidity "split"-zips, and encrypted-zips
(beyond the already noted requirements on version and compression
method)
 * requirements on the configuration file (XML well-formed, vocabulary
constraints)
(and probably more)
