Okay, I see that there is quite a bit of interest in the Minimal,  
Event space. I'm see how this comes from the view of what most Comet/ 
AJAX techniques are doing today on the web: Getting some piece of  
"update" information into a web-page that a user is viewing.

What I'm wondering is: How does one, given a Minimal, Event style  
protocol, handle when there are two or more widgets on the page that  
need updates? The home page view on Facebook, for example, has at  
least four separate areas being live-updated.
