btw did you guys try "Skin.SetPath(NAME_OF_STRING,addons://sources/video/)" or something similar?

The problem I had using SetPath is having to specify where it opens isn't any good if the user wants something different.

@phil65, if you need any help; For some of the requests here I already did some coding in my skin's helper script, so I can share this with you for the toolbox script in order to other skinners can benefit from it if you want.

Looking at the request to provide the content's path to set a widget. This might be something to be added to the skinshortcuts scripts ?
Most of the code is already in there, I think it's an easy change and can add it in if you want. That way you can provide both your own defined widgets from skinshortcuts or let the user choose from a library path/location.

Adding it to skin shortcuts would be perfect as I tried running it using s button to just select a shortcut but it adds the ActivateWindow part as well.

would be possible. Something like script.toolbox(info=getpercentage,string=NAME_OF_STRING,total=TOTAL_AMOUNT,part=PART_AMOUNT)?

Would it also be possible to get percent remaining from ListItem.PercentPlayed?
