If all else fails, hack, errm override Application>>updatePage: with your own 
code.
You could then maintain a modifiable collection of things to include.
The widgets could add their dependencies to that collection in their 
content-method.

There might be some pitfalls with this whole approach, though.

What will happen, if you add a widget requiring an onLoad handler via AJAX
to an existing page? Will onLoad be executed again? Will the widget fail?
