Subject: [PATCH] Add a website widget, so a page nobody modelled as a message
 can hang on a wall
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A tile that draws whatever an address serves: no binding, no flow, just an
iframe. Only http(s) loads — a `javascript:` src would run in the app's own
origin, and a dashboard is a document several people can edit.
