Hi All, I've been trying to find out if any of the / which common browsers support widgets, or plan to. The best I've been able to find so far is a chart in the widgets-landscape doc [1] from over 2 years ago. If widget support is planned or implemented in any of the major browsers, could somebody indicate (or point me to a document which indicates) how the browser handles a non-embedded widget. Namely if I create a widget entirely out of HTML5 & JS, wrap it up and sign it, then point a browser to the URI where it can be located, will it download and run in the main browser window, or other? Additionally, under what security model would it run, would CORS/UMP etc still apply as this seems to be at odds with the Widget Access Request Policy [2].
