Thanks for the pointers guys. I just found jim-knobf myself a couple of minutes ago.
The issues with widget sets are:
1) You can't please all of the people all of the time. Thus selecting one widget set and it's associated API's is not on.
2) We certainly don't want to bloat the system by including large widget libraries of which only a fraction will be used.
3) We think people should be able to make their own.
Thus, we'll be using the graphic elements from things like Jim Knobf, and inserting the real-time update code from ThingStudio, which is minimal, into them. This facility will be available to anyone using ThingStudio, not just us.
