Actually, the cute part of the whole thing is the fact that gadget
mutual exclusion doesn't work, unless you code it youself.  Further,
Commodore's definition of it was that it would DISABLE, not deselect,
the listed gadgets.

Basically, what I've always done is to self-code the exclusion algorithm
for both en/disabling gadgets and (de)selecting them into my GADGETUP
code.
