 a **list** of widgets, and those will comprise the widgets (in ordered
 fashion) - During runtime, you can set a new list of widgets by using
-the ``self.widgets(<new list>)`` method of the module

 - themes: use colors to improve theme readability
 - convert some stuff to simple attributes to reduce LOCs
-- use add_widget() instead of core.widget.Widget()
 - use widget index for bumblebee-ctl as alternative (??)

 Add info about error widget and events for error logging
