I have to agree here : having something partially functional is ok, 
having somethings where the packaging isn't quite right is ok -- in 
experimental, of course! But having something just broken doesn't really 
push things further.

In fact, those missing JavaScript pieces is the reason why I don't have 
ITPed ipywidgets myself...
