You're correct to say that "output=js" is not supported by Shindig. It is used by www.gmodules.com to render open-syndication gadgets (or gadgets for your webpage, here <http://www.google.com/ig/directory?synd=open>). I understood that there are better ways to support "output=js", so it probably should not continue in Shindig.
