This is what I use right now, as you can see it's pretty basic. I had
to write a bunch of these and didn't give them much thought, I just
dumped them all in a single file. When I find I need some html-
attribute, I just add it to this fn. No tests were bothered in the
making of these input-presentations! (but look in the contrib dir for
a bunch of other ideas).

Which widgets in particular? (the rest of your post is about
presentations, afaik).

Moving from relying on the forms mechanism to writing (lots) of
widgets helped our development effort a lot, so I highly recommend it.

Absolutely. A wiki is a good idea imho to collect the weblocks
knowledge that's extant.
