Description

After a discussion with Ean, was suggested (draft here):

You need a service that lets you "subscribe" a widget to an entity and
then propagate change events to the widget as the entity is modified.

A generic mechanism like that could eventually expand to be a general
purpose "data bound widgets" system that mostly looks like the existing
system but magically reflects updates.

Could be used with/for

• The entity cache and webforms to automatically update views when data changes.
• Replaces the current system notes
• Create a dashboard type pages (to be discussed futher)
