So please, if you are interested in how and where widgets and buttons are implemented, then test this. I need some feedback, of course. Unfortunately in this stage of the testing it is not possible to collect information on where a button or widget type is defined since this is done before the module above is loaded now. (I have also not added collecting of this information to the functions that creates button objects yet.)
