Control Centre widgets

Support for Control Centre in macOS Tahoe would be amazing. Is it possible to display a menu from a small (icon) or medium (icon + label) control? If so, existing plugins might map well.

I think that it is doable, but it needs careful design. To that extent, can you give me an example or two of plugins that you would like to see in the Control Center and how they should look and operate?

The plugin that made me think of the feature is this one: https://github.com/drewkerr/swiftbar/blob/main/caffeinate.sh It's just a simple toggle. I could almost recreate it as a Shortcut but it wouldn't show the current status (UPDATE: I can show status with the rename shortcut action).

Does the API allow third parties to make expanding menus (like e.g. WiFi control)? That might work with existing plugins.
