As programmer myself I can readily assure tablet program folks that when presented with the choice of creating my own widget or tapping into available infrastructure, I'm going with door 2 every single time. No debate.

So-- why didn't they? That's Nokia's question to ask and solve.
Navicore didn't either. By my count that would be every third party proprietary app chose door number 1 or eliminated the feature all together.

Could it be security related?
