I'm also with Ed on this one. I think the more generic 'manifest.xml' name makes more sense in this context, as a lot of the actual data in the manifest is not used to directly "configure" the application in any significant way... but then again, it all depends on the definition of "configuration".

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. 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>.
