Current location

I don't know what the dashboard APIs look like right now, but it would be awesome if I could set the widget to just use my laptop's location.

I stubbed some code out for this in this release and quickly discovered that geolocation is completely inoperable in widgets. navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(callback) returns an error immediately. I have a feeling that this has to do with OS level location privacy features that were introduced after Dashboard. It doesn't have permission to request location data and it's not aware of how to get permission. I'm leaving this open in case anybody has any insight or a work-around.
