Hi, Mike-
The Mozilla Open Apps project looks cool, and I hope it can work out to
be compatible with Widgets. Your extensions and use cases seem useful.
This would be a good thing for everyone involved.

*In-Browser/"live content" usage*
Our goal is to encompass "in-browser" application usage, where some
subset of normal web browsing activity is identified as an "app".
It seems that that might be a reasonable use case for the new Widgets
Embedding spec [1]:
[[
Widgets Embedding: a mechanism to allow embedding of packaged
applications within other Web content, such as referencing via the HTML
object element. This is a new deliverable for the WebApps WG.
]]
(Prior warning: I apologize if I disappear from the list at short notice
in a day or two; I have a new baby coming imminently)
Congratulations to you and your family!
