I think this looks like a great idea - with the potential to be a real
time saver.
Is it your intention that it would remain wide-open for public editing?
If not, it might be worth hosting it on catalystframework.org, to make
use of the authentication already in place.
Otherwise, I'd be happy to host it on my personal domain, and provide
a link from the H-W docs.

I know it's just a starting point, so I won't make any comment other
than to ask:
in Catalyst apps, do you usually pass $widget->process() a query
object from CGI.pm, rather than using Catalyst::Plugin::HTML::Widget ?
If so, why?

OT: can I also take this opportunity to ask if you've had a chance to
think about the points raised in the "HTML::Widget::Element::Field"
thread - specifically regarding the API, and the other ways in which
you might like to (ab)use H-W ? ;)

Cheers,
Carl
