Are we likely to get data-aware gadgets in the near future? (Data-aware gadgets are capable of watching database connections, such that the gadget data is automatically updated when changed by another database user.)

IMHO this is a natural consequence of having a Database library. :wink:

Doesn't make much sense to me.
What should this be? a ListViewGadget() with a database as a parameter that automatically looks for updates of that database? With an optional time-out, update-speed etc. parameter? :lol:

C'mon we are programmers and we know how to manage this by ourselves.

Yeah, but some are lazier than others... :D
