shooting from the hip, here's what I'd do:
user enters text in search box, submits
request handling
widget transmits search term to application (?)
widget marks dependent widgets (result area, history) as dirty
widget tells app to conduct search
app stores term and results in history
response handling: dirty widgets get rebuilt
search widget keeps entered text
result widget asks app for search result to display
history widget asks app for last 20 searches
uses search terms for link text
uses callbacks to notify app of chosen search
SCNR,
