 While testing revision 10915 with Thematic I recognized that static
 sidebar IDs are no longer working.

 I introduced this feature to Thematic a while ago to protect the
 widgetized areas against the behaviour of other plugins. For example:
 Tabbed Widgets registers an 'Invisible Sidebar' .. as long as you're using
 dynamic sidebar IDs (sidebar-x) this will move all widgets registered to a
 sidebar to the next sidebar and so on .. using static sidebars (primary-
 aside, secondary-aside and so on) will prevent this behavior.

 With the redesign of the widgets admin page the static sidebar IDs won't
 work at all .. line 1281 in admin-ajax.php prevents that the widgets
 (moved to a certain sidebar) are saved.

 Cheers,

 Chris
