As a	CEP developer
I would like to	change just the parameters tab of the action widget (and have more space for my action widget)
So that	I can deliver the same user experience (doc and information about selected target) without reimplementing everything

Description / Overview

This story is about improving the ActionWidget API/usage:

• It should be possible to get/set only the QFrame parameters section of default ActionWidget (and hence modifying just the "Parameters" part of the widget, see below)

• It should be possible to easily access the frame itself in order to restrict the space used in the GUI (for instance in the action state machine, as in the screenshot below, should we use all this space for description and targets that nobody really look at) ?

• The Description / Targets / Parameters section should take less space (use stacked widget like in the mockup below? Tab widget?)

Hints

• Add set/getFrame() to ActionWidget
• modify action state machine to use the getFrame() not the full default widget
• rewrite default widget to take less space

Acceptance test

• a tutorial showing a demo
• asm for reconstruction improve the space for parameter interaction
• Action API doc updated to show this usage
