Reading this thread a bit late and perhaps not knowing what the fuck am I
talking about.  But dynamic keypaths is soemthing I'll need in the panel.
There are per-applet configurations that just cannot be fixed.  Grapevine
currently does a weird hack to get this right by generating a unique part
of the path for each applet and PonG currently handles that as well.

I cannot possibly think how this can be replaced with a complex enough
structure without MAJOR reaces.
