As a followup to Mark Roseman (roseman@cpsc.ucalgary.ca), we also found 
ourselves in a position where we wanted to subclass WidgetKit.  Basically
our application needed scrollers or scrollbars that supported n dimensions
(not just X/Y/Z).  WidgetKit members such as hscroll_bar rely on the 
Adjustable, whose current impl only accepts CoordinateSpace::dimensions (3)
number of dimensions.  So naturally we considered subclassing WidgetKit
to fix this and also ran into trouble.
