> osapi.container.GadgetSite.prototype.render fails to render a gadget using a
> given view when that gadget does not explicitly define that view, even in the
> case where the container configuration has aliases for that view.
> For instance, Gadget A supports the "profile" and "canvas" views only. The
> container configuration defines the "home" view and provides "profile" as an
> alias for "home". In the use case where the container tries to render Gadget
> A using the "home" view, gadget render will fail, even though the gadget
> supports "profile" and it has been specified as an alias for "home" in the
> container configuration.
> This problem commonly manifests itself in Shindig because of the way
> "default" views are handled. By default, Shindig will attempt to render the
> gadget using the "default" view. If the gadget does not support that view,
> rendering will fail.
