Ok, I have now attached a third revision of the patch to add the
infrastructure needed to support gadget based accepting-values
dialogs. The big change is that encapsulating streams now support the
incremental redisplay protocol, and so stream-accept on an
accepting-values-stream can now pass the encapsulating stream to
accept-present-default. This removes a bit of the ugliness from the
accept-present-default methods for displaying gadgets in general.

I'm still trying to figure out how to make nested calls to accept work
(e.g. for a user defined accept-present-default that accepts a few
primitive types) without resorting to nested accepting-values calls.

I've also attached a newer avg.lisp that should be fully working if a
bit in need of cleanup. Now supported are text-field and text-editor
gadgets.
