No, they use a "#" (not at the last position of their name), just like menus do.

I've been using TIP306 in applications, together with BWidgets, for 1.5 years already... (of course without auto-naming the BWidgets, that simply does not work yet.)

FWIW, I had a quick glance at the BWidget source code. I adapted some of the widgets to be able to use auto-naming, in just 5 minutes. I think it would not take more than 20 minutes to adapt all of them.

I can understand that people prefer a solution that works for all existing widgets at once, but that will be difficult. For example, if TIP180 is done, BWidget will also have to be adapted to make use of it.
