Dear all,
this is indeed quite interesting. In the context of the ROLE project, we
are developing an interwidget communication library that realizes both
local and remote forms (local via HTML5 PostMessage, remote via XMPP
PubSub) and uses the Google Android schema for intents as the event
payload format. This works quite well, and was thought to enable
communication between widgets and native Android applications in future...
Best regards,
Dominik

This looks really interesting - though I'm not sure where the registry of
providers for each user lives?
Paul and I have been working on a dynamic service binding mechanism for widgets
using a backend service registry and some selection logic - for example for
identifying which SMS sending API to use (e.g. direct through phone device API,
or via server-side SMS gateway). However, putting the user in control of
selecting providers for services may be a better idea, especially if this takes
off.
I wonder if it removes the need for oAuth in some cases?

This should be really powerful for widget interactions
