<div dir="ltr"><div>Agreed. Unregistering the core Text Widget does not seem to make a great deal of sense considering how generic it's utility is. IF there is something special about a "text" widget the theme "requires" then I would suggest simply registering a custom Theme specific widget.<br>

<br></div>I also see (most of) the "widget" related guideline(s) to be more for clarifications than anything else.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div>Edward Caissie<br>aka Cais.</div>
