I agree with Ed about making a distinction between style and metadata.
However, I would like to investigate further the implications of the
width and height elements before considering discarding them.

should be in the DOM (and hence the HTML somehow). I learned the hard
way that mixing the two... not so good.

Hmm. In pondering this I also question the name of the file. Since
this is metadata, I'm thinking it shouldn't even be called
config.xml, but perhaps just manifest.xml.
It's not just metadata. For instance, the <height> and <width>
elements set the initial size of the widget. Now I agree that
they're not the most optimal solution for that, but it's the kind of
information you might want to put in this file. As well as other
information that's important for the widget.
I can see it being used
for metadata and packaging information that user agents can use to
pull the Widget apart and start it up. That said, I am partial to
<manifest>.
