Widgets System

[psychobunny]

The widgets system is meant to be a low-barrier of entry for people who just know basic HTML, CSS, and a bit of JS. You can paste in whatever scripts that you'd like to embed, even Youtube embeds for an example. You can build more advanced widgets like the shoutbox I'm assuming @mr_waffle will be releasing soon Anyways, here's the developer's guide, please let me know if I need to be more clear on some things!

I'm still on the 0.5.x branch (I know I need to upgrade..). Does the widget system replace the "Custom HTML & CSS" section of 0.5.x?
