onUpdate being called is a bug, and contradicts what's in the
documentation. A widget is created, but won't be shown until after the
config activity returns.
The widget ID still being there even if you cancel the config activity
is also a bug on some versions of Android.
I documented my workaround for the second bug here:

As far as I can tell, if I have defined a configuration activity for
my widget then onUpdate should not be called when it is first created.
It would be the configuration activity's responsibility to perform the
initial configuration of the widget.
Why is it then that I still get calls to onUpdate in the widget
provider, and after that call the configuration activity is started.
If I cancel the configuration activity I get no visible widget on the
home screen. If I have cancelled a widget configuration (by pressing
back in the configuration activity) and reinstall the APK all the
widgets, including the cancelled ones, each gets mentioned in calls to
onUpdate.
Surely this shouldn't be so. And if it is, then how do I get rid of
the widgets that was cancelled during configuration.
I'm running my code on the emulator with Android 1.6.
