retrieving only options and/or passing arguments to widget

excellent plugin!
2 quick questions:
1) any chance you can somehow retrieve only an instance’ stored option (e.g., title or description)?

2) any chance you can pass an argument? e.g.,

$args = array( 'calling_from' => 'outside' );
do_action('widget_instance', 'superplugin' , $args);

so then you can check this from within the widget?

many thanks!
