Awesome idea, though I'd rather use these http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_ProgTopics/Articles/Design.html, they are a bit simpler :), so people will rather read it. And they are optimized for small widget or morphs :) that don't have to be that constrained in their design since they are graspable in an instant anyways. :)
