Wear OS - Widgets in addition to legacy Tiles

[kattcrazy]

Describe the feature

In Wear OS 7, widgets were added as a part of a move to make user experience more like the typical Android phone. Tiles are circular, non-scrollable... tiles. Widgets are rectangular or pill-shaped items in a scrollable stack within a tile. Widgets provide a way to gather information or buttons in groups, per tile. For example, an exercise tile may have a steps widget, workout widget, and heartrate widget.

I'd like to see the existing tiles migrated to widgets, potentially keeping the old tile format.

2x1 widgets

• Single entities, whether control or viewing. Appearance could probably mirror the tile card closely.
• Templates
• Assist, a single button

2x2 widgets

• Shortcuts widget, much like the native Samsung one, but it behaves like the HA shortcuts tile does currently.
• Larger version of single entities widget
• Templates
• Camera
• Assist, based on the Google Gemini tile with a mic icon and a premade message

Use cases

I would make a smart home tile with my room light, temperature, and front door camera.
