The widget's internal event listener registration code should allow the registration of multiple listeners for the same widget event so that widgets with panels can register an extra click event for opening their panels.

Here's a patch (split off from the WIP patch in bug 494238) that makes the necessary changes.

Erm, I just realized there's a better way to open a panel on a click event that doesn't require registering multiple click handlers.

The Add-on SDK is no longer a Mozilla Labs experiment and has become a big enough project to warrant its own Bugzilla product, so the "Add-on SDK" product has been created for it, and I am moving its bugs to that product.
