The big argument for keeping this in the core is that it might be more
efficient.  There are a lot of box properties, and if you're wanting to
forward pretty-much all of them, then that's 30-40 traps (at least) to
be doubled-up (in both directions).

Although from a programming perspective, this will be a lot easier to
deal with if it's widget-only, because then we can control the redirects
as opposed to working around them.

A lot of time was spent working around the redirected properties in
Lithium, so it'd be cool to save ourselves the hassle this time around
(as long as we use our newfound freedom wisely).
