Usage

Create your own block and extend this widget:

div
  div(plug="widget"): //- your DOM here
  script(type="@plotdb/block"):lsc
    obj = { /* your options here */ };
    module.exports = {
      pkg: {extend: {name: "@makeform/nest", dom: "overwrite"}}
      init: ({pubsub, parent, i18n}) ->
        pubsub.fire("init.nest", obj)
    }

Where obj fired along with the init.nest event to @makeform/nest via pubsub is described as above.

Note that you should overwrite @makeform/nest's DOM and implement widget plug manually for ancestor @makeform/common.
