Scriptaculous isn't going to be necessary. When Brothercake's dbx [1]
is updated with the things I need for Widgets, I'll probably stop
using Scriptaculous. In combination with your suggestion of moo.fx [2]
I think we'd have enough features to drop Scriptaculous.

I actually had a blind guy who blogs about braille ask me how to move
the widgets without a mouse. Brothercake's scripts are 100% keyboard
accessible.
