I have tried removing the html widgets using removeUI or javascript (plus unbindAll/bindAll) but it does not help, I guess because once the value is in the 'input' list, it stays there until something on the UI updates it.
I also tried to edit the 'input' list itself (on the server side) but I get an error because it is readonly.
Any idea on how to clean the 'input' list from deleted shiny input widgets?
Best
