"All" widgets

P.S. The "Options" menu is an applet that contains a quick hack to remove some of Grail's user interface components, in order to recover some screen space for the presentation (which was done in a modified version of Grail that used a huge font). There is no way to undo its effect on the current browser window, but you can use "Clone Current Window" to create a new browser window with the same contents.
