If you're seeing no output, it quite possibly means that there's been an exception raised somewhere. The normal thing would be to put debugging prints into a few of the methods of your widget class to see if/when particular lines are executed. It's quite possible, for example, that the JSON encoding might be failing, so putting prints before and after that line would help rule that out.

Basically, the only place is when a BoundField is rendered in the template. There's no specific documentation on this. Perhaps you'd like to write up what you learn as a Wiki page to get the ball rolling?
