Widget name tokens for use on pages for calling nanoflows

2

There's several actions in the platform now that require the use of widgets names

e.g. the Reset Filters JS action, or the Export on Datagrid 2.

Passing these via static strings is a weak connection and thus affecting one of the strengths of the Mendix platform: automatic refactoring when renaming.

To facilitate this for this scenario it would be great to have tokens available on a page, that represent the available widgets and can be passed then e.g. to a nanoflow call.

Changing a widgets name then can no longer break functionality as the token would always pass the current name.
