To be honest, the concept that a widget requires a constant that can't
be changed later is also a bit odd. There are many times you won't know
beforehand how big the data is, surely the framework should be smart
enough to handle these cases?

Start the width at 100, if it turns out to be too small, make it
bigger...

Have a nice day,
