You don't need a widgetFile function to use Julius and Lucius in
wai-routes. Take a look at this small example -
https://github.com/ajnsit/wai-routes/blob/master/examples/Hamlet.hs -
on how to render Cassius from an external file. The process for
including Julius or Lucius should be fairly similar to Cassius.

Note that Wai-routes 0.7.1 includes a function called `showRouteQuery`
(http://hackage.haskell.org/package/wai-routes-0.7.1/docs/Network-Wai-Middleware-Routes-Routes.html#v:showRouteQuery)
which is a route renderer in the format that Shakespearean templates
expect.
