Some widgets are extensible in a modular way. For instance, the list widget
features extensible listview modules that handle animating changes to a
list. Hijacking isn't really part of the TW5 way of doing things, but
JavaScript is JavaScript so anything is possible...

That sounds an awful lot like the way that the context tiddler works for
transclusion at the moment.

I'm not sure that I fully understand your proposals here, but as ever they
are in interesting territory!
