Man, imagine lock screen widgets. Such a product of the future. I wonder whether we'll get those in Android 2.0 or so finally.

(They were around before, and removed in Android 5 for no reason)

All Android updates have been feeling like this lately.
Just bringing back stuff that shouldn't even have been removed in the first place

Its like Windows, add shit in, then take it away then reintroduce it some time later as a new must have feature and assume we goldfish won't remember.
