 I can think of three cases:[[BR]]
 - informational only box - it presents some information only and does not
 allow any modifications (or they are not sent back to server) - in this
 case nonces are not needed at all;[[BR]]
 - solution which uses more than one once to track multiple parts of meta
 box, which may be present or not depending on some condition - in this
 case plugin should be able to print and validate multiple onces;[[BR]]
 - custom nonce-like solution (although I do not see a point why someone
 would like to go this way).
