Summary
Whenever an external gadget (not from Atlassian products) is added into Confluence, it doesn't work. Sniffing the error using firebug will reveal this error:
"Requests to http://www.nonexistance.com/json/builders/ are not allowed. See your administrator about configuring a whitelist entry for this destination (http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/KQfCDQ )."
However, the whitelist configuration had already been set to Allow all URLs. Therefore the error is somehow misleading.
