 > Yes, since once you get to the "lost widget" check the concept of the
 related sidebar is lost. I'd love to group them, but wasn't sure if that
 was needed.

 This can look confusing... Imagine 10 orphaned widgets that will create 10
 additional orphaned sidebars under Available Widgets, each containing just
 one widget.

 I understand why you don't want to add them to Inactive, not to mix them
 with the (many) widgets that are probably already there, but having many
 orphaned sidebars containing one widget each may be worse.
