But my widget has a back-end that may be modified at a low level by
another process, and if this happens, then I want all instances of
it to quit... Otherwise, if it stays open, then it will be unstable
at worst and unusable at best. Re-launching won't work, because the
widget will most likely be an older version that doesn't support
the new back-end.
If closing is indeed essential, I think your best bet would be to
have the widget display a message that instructs the user to close
and re-open it. (Just hide any content divs and show a div that
contains this error message.) This seems friendlier than having a
widget disappear from the user's Dashboard.
