What format it will be in is not a problem. The major barrier is the
infrastructure behind it. Having an local startup module, controlling cache
properly, clashing module names, foreign sources etc.

The format you propose is not realistic because it doesn't make sense to invent
a new format. We already solved this problem once in Gadgets with
Gadgets-definition syntax. Which we then destroy in Gadgets 2.0 because it
doesn't scale enough.

The format will be JSON because wikitext does not scale for this kind of thing
(we need scripts, styles, dependencies, messages, load position, and possibly
more: skinStyles, skinScripts etc.). We already solved the format problem in
Gadgets 2.0.
