sk: There will be some big new features in 2.4
One of the things that you can see happening slowly in the changes already in is a migration of the admin AJAX code to jQuery along with improvements to that functionality

I’d like to be able to rename text widgets to reflect what they contain. Also perhaps the ability to create more than 9 without using a plugin to duplicate current widgets.
