Also, by using NetworkTables, you would be working with a thoroughly debugged and reliable protocol. Otherwise, I think its a good idea to have custom indicators and widgets.

You'r right, it would be convenient to use network tables; but unfortunately I don't have much, or any, knowledge on the subject and I'm graduating this year (May), so I don't have much time to put into researching and implementing the feature. If anyone else has the knowledge to implement this feature I'm sure it would be appreciated. I'm a young, inexpirienced, and somewhat unskilled programmer; so please don't blame me for not wanting to "bite off more than I can chew." Thanks for the comment; if I find the time, and no one else is willing, I'll probably add full Smart Dashboard compatibility eventually.
