It seems slightly more secure if the security token were put into an HTTP 
header instead of in the URL when making requests back to the server from 
gadgets. This way the token is not normally logged by proxies, etc.

We'd still probably support the URL parameter for debugging purposes.

I'm not a security expert, possibly others with more experience can weigh in on 
how important this is.
