Yes, well, what I did was kick out the drawers... Widgeteer uses the 
simple pop-up mechanism that the right-click menu in kupu stand-alone 
uses. Of course this has some drawbacks, but for simple use cases I 
guess the pop-ups suffice, and for more complex situations the popups 
can be overridden (e.g. for using fake pop-ups).

Do mind that the Widgeteer solution is not meant to replace the 'normal' 
(rather cumbersome, though very flexible) way of deployment, but as a 
simple, additional way to deploy Kupu as a textarea replacement (read: I 
use it in my own custom CMS-ses and in some XML editor I'm working on ;) .

Cheers,

Guido
