    The "wid-edit" functions _ought_ to be autoloaded when used, so it
    _ought_ to be unnecessary to explicitly load it.  However, whether
    this theory holds I'm not sure of.

I don't know why any package would require wid-edit.  Maybe people can
check whether there is a real reason for that.  It could be a mistake
that the package requires wid-edit.

    Maybe, the problem seem to be the 'checkbox' widget call
    'create-image' for :on-glyph and :off-glyph.  These calls could be
    "lazy evaled" to delay the actual creation, but it would complicate
    the code.  I have no opinion on whether that would be worthwhile.

It was easy to do, so I did it.
