[edit] Brainstorming
Use case: you have a parcel you need to track. It'd be cool to be able to embed a suitable parcel tracking widget on your 'things I'm watching' page temporarily and then delete it when the parcel arrives. In general the idea of temporary widgets that watch some specific transaction and are deleted when it completes.
[edit] Javascript verbs that can target widgets
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:tell('map1', 'goMarker10')">Go to marker 10</a>
