Description

When a user clicks the "add new widget" link from the rave gadget store, the UI shows both opensocial & w3c types (as radio buttons). At present the w3c radio button does nothing as its not been implemented yet. It would be good if we could query wookies "widget advert" service to bring back a list of w3c widgets already installed in wookie. A dialog could appear where the user then chooses which one to import into rave - populating the metadata as an opensocial gadget currently does.

Note: the only method at present to add w3c widgets to rave is to manually add a tuples to the db.

Later strategies for this could possibly look at aligning wookies import setup to also behave in a similar fashion to rave/shindig.
