It would be technically possible but the current code-base would need
quite some hacking to make it custom for Android. The core PhoneGap
engine is designed to present the "same API" across all devices. Device
specific items (eg: Tabbar on iPhone) are being done via plugins - I am
not aware of any plugin to do this on the Android platform and from what
I know of the current Android code-base, it would need quite a bit of
work to implement.

I played with Android widgets before, and really see no connection to
Phonegap at all. I don't think this would make any sense.
