  icomment: Hello Harald,

            yes, my proposal was only a quick-and-dirty-solution and You was right
            to stop it.  Please revert/delete the commit.  I go very deep inside
            BWidget and think to know the right way now.

            First, the constructs with "#<classname>" is mainly for widgets from
            old 1.9.x BWidget,  which construct and divide with it their
            data-arrays in global level/namespace.  (Sorry, my proposal comes from
            my old ActiveTcl 8.6.4.1.)  New version 1.10.x use other algorithms,
            own namespaces, and there inside data-arrays  for each widget
            instance.

            Second, both widgets *LEFT* a call to "Widget::init".  They only do a
            "Widget::initFromODB", which is not enough.  This is the part, why we
            do not get all data structures and proc's up, and  no checks of
            parameters and values.  By the way, the "init" does much more than
            "initFromODB".  So we should *ADD* it just before "initFromODB", to
            get the priority  default-value -> ODB-value -> parameter-value (->
            this is used).

            The same is for the new Calendar proposal (I send it separate)!

            Hope, this helps to fix all BWidgets version 1.10.x.  Best greetings
            to You,  Thomas W.
