#manually make new widget
/usr/bin/gnu/find  / -type f -exec md5sum {} \; > after.log 2> /dev/null
/usr/bin/gnu/diff -u before.log after.log

And read the source code of hildon-desktop.

But now there are steps: (these are for developers, so I won't describe them)
Root:

Code:

mkdir /var/lib/gconf/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/applets/test-widget.desktop
 echo '<?xml version="1.0"?>
 <gconf>
         <entry name="position" mtime="1331031074" type="list" ltype="int">
                 <li type="int" value="0"/>
                 <li type="int" value="306"/>
         </entry>
 </gconf>
 ' > /var/lib/gconf/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/applets/test-widget.desktop/%gconf.xml

User: (adding 'getting started'-widget)

Code:

echo "
[test-widget.desktop-0]
X-Desktop-File=/usr/share/applications/hildon-home/tutorial-home.desktop
" >>  /home/user/.config/hildon-desktop/home.plugins

-> Now you can see new widget.

Changing just created widget to the desktop 2
user:

Code:

gconftool-2 --set /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/applets/test-widget.desktop-0/view --type int 2

This modification is not visible after: killall hildon-desktop

I'm not yet sure does QBW has any mechanics for commandline addings or do we need some hacking there also.
TransTech made nice separated .queen_beecon-files which can be catenated to the end of existing one, so this might be almost ready (in theory).
