If you get sick of suggestions just say so :-)

About new widgets: ok, all usefull, I'm working...
About pages. IoT Manager do not know about any pages, before device (or devices) send config data to broker. In one page may be data from several device, and one device can be send data to several pages. One sensor may be in several pages. Page - abstract thing used by humans only. HELLO command used for handshaking only, and, yes, several seconds needed only for handshaking process. Next, updating screen data in app, going "per sensor" and very fast.

But PLEASE can we have status leds on their own - i.e. not attached to a button - but just some text... these might monitor something happening independently - like the heat turning on in a thermostat - or other independent process.
