    Since both widgets and views will use the Require element we should have a type attribute. If type is missing default to type="view" /* require brings in trifecto */

    OK, but we'll need to use something else for the widget id, since *id* is reserved for Alloy use. How about we use *src* for both cases and let the *type* determine how each should be handled?

    option #1

       <Require type="widget" src="widgetId"/>
   <Require type="view" src="path/to/view"/>
    I actually like the idea of doing this initially:

    option #2

       <Require widget="widgetId"/>
   <Require view="path/to/view"/>
    but it starts introducing more reserved keywords. It's also not as flexible as using *type* if we ended up adding more types. But... man does it look pretty, clean, and expressive. I don't know, I might be talking myself back into option #2 as I'm typing. Thoughts?
