That is what I thought: widgets if used as components on some page behave as a micro documents - fragments of the DOM with local style systems rooted to the widget. But it seems that this is not the case - that Widgets are more about free floating frames that live in top level windows on desktop(?), something like Konfabulator "desktoplets".

Assuming I understand you correctly, then yes. The Widgets spec at W3C is about a way to package web standards-based applications to use them as locally installed applications.

Thanks for the clarification.

Seems like I mixed up Web Widget[1], Web Control[2] and Behavior[3]

[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_widget
[2] http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-controls/current-work/
[3] http://www.w3.org/TR/becss/

Simply thought that scoped style sheet are somehow related to one of those.
