I won't ask, but I'll tell you what I'd like to use it for:
What about some X11 application that connects to my backgammon server
and has a nice display? A friend of mine already started working on
such a program, but hasn't reached the X11 part of the program yet. Maybe
this widget helps to make it available sooner.

Not only would the graphics be keen, you could also learn by losing
against other players.
