Dashboard Widget Configuration Toggle

Currently the only way to toggle the configuration of a widget is by clicking on the pen icon.
There is the 'configuring' reserved parameter, but this appears to be read only. If this can be made so that the dashboard listens for a change, it would be possible to change the widget configuration state via expressions/scripting.
For IA Ref, Support ticket #14948 has further information.

Even if I set the "configuring" parameter to be false, it does not appear to actually turn off the widget configuration state (I'm experimenting with having a unique ID on each widget, so that small widgets can open a configuration popup that sends out a message that the dashboard handles and updates the widget with the associated ID... but setting "configuring" to false appears to do nothing, apparently due to how the dashboard component's logic is implemented).
If the dashboard configuration logic was actually driven off of the "configuring" boolean state that would be much more flexible.

I second this. It seems that allowing the "configuration" parameter be inout might do it. But as you said it is still read only.
