It's a great idea.  I can see one problem though.  You can't have a
gadget "X" which excludes "Y", but "Y" doesn't exclude "X".  In other
words, with your suggestion, exclusion must be a two-way association.

I think most uses of exclusion could live with this though.  Are there
any usefull reasons why you would need one-way exclusion?  Although I
hate to use a "limited" solution to a problem which might restrict
future funtionality, this could be an answer.  Let's keep the
productive discussion up!
