> People are increasingly using gadgets.rpc as a cross-domain communication 
> library for arbitrary IFRAMEs. In doing so (and for type=url gadgets), they 
> typically do:
> <script src="http://server.com/gadgets/js/rpc.js?c=1"/>
> ...then initialize communication.
> The above inclusion now (properly) pulls in gadgets.config libs, so the check 
> in rpc.js that determines "gadget-ness" for initialization purposes is 
> rendered meaningless:
>       if (gadgets.config) {
>         setupContainerGadgetContext(rpctoken);
>       } else {
>         // never happens
>         setupContainerGenericIframe(rpctoken, opt_receiverurl);
>       }
> I propose adding a small JS beacon in the gadget-rendering case, in 
> RenderingGadgetRewriter, that affirms that the context is in fact that a 
> gadget is being processed. In particular, this ensures that 
> gadgets.config.init({"rpc":...}) will be called.
> The beacon will be small eg:
> <script>window["__isgadget"] = true;</script>
> With this injected and gadgets.rpc updated to use the check, initialization 
> should work properly for all cases. At such time as we're comfortable getting 
> rid of IFPC, we can remove all of this and just use 
> setupContainerGenericIframe(...) always.
