Well, you should only be using cargo:run during development anyway. For 
production you should deploy it in the usual way with Tomcat, in which case 
starting/stopping Tomcat won't remove any of your content or data.

If you do need to use cargo:run to run Rave, and keep deploying your custom 
widgets, you could build it into your CI process, e.g using Jenkins, so that 
every time you build you also deploy the widgets and add them to the store. 
There is also an option in the portal preferences to skip the admin approval 
step for new widgets to speed things up.

It appears so - I've created a new bug in the tracker for this. It may be 
something fairly trivial, because if you inspect the HTML and remove the 
"visibility:hidden" attribute from the widget iframes they look fine.
