Hi, I may be mis-interpreting some of your questions so please correct me if I missed something, but Re: "We would like the gadget selected feed to display in the same way as the RSS feeds that can be added to iGoogle."
The problem you would have is your gadgets get rendered in iframes and Google has a built in reader they use for theirs. Your gadget will not be able to incorporate/use that data from its parent frame, it use to be possible before (inline gadget) but the functionality to do it was removed to bring the gadgets spec in par with the Shindig/Open Social api (being used in the sandbox). As you have mentioned, you can try to style things to match some themes basic color pallet (I added a drop down menu for users to select the "style") or alternatively if dealing with that many feeds you could provide an option/link to pass the url/feed to the built in gadget reader and it will load outside your gadget. You can get the link to do it here >> http://www.google.com/webmasters/add.html Hope that helps some :-) Cheers!
