It would be great if we could develop a panel above the news panel on the staff interface that would serve as a widget dashboard in which we could activate future developed widgets. For example, I currently use jQuery mods to move the #area-pending element that houses the patron suggestions patrons requesting modifications up above the news. I've also recently added a panel to show upcoming library closures. Maybe in the future those could be turned into option widgets that could be added to this dashboard. And maybe others could be developed to show libraries that are closed, show the number of holds waiting to be pulled at your library, show curbside statuses, etc.
