Comment (by wonderboymusic):

 why is this so coupled to the potential transport mechanism? your first
 approach was sufficient in its idea - setting default props for the widget
 instance.

 seems like a Widget instance that can return its props passed to a REST
 decorator would avoid tight coupling
