 The problem:

 Seems like there's a sort of autosave race condition going on with setting
 widget titles. This may very well apply to other widget controls though I
 haven't tested for it.

 The act of typing in a new widget title triggers the autosave, which then
 cuts you off from typing and collapses the widget container. Once the
 container is collapsed, it seems like it can't be re-expanded, rendering
 the widget controls inn inaccessible. Sometimes the new widget title gets
 sent to the preview, sometimes not.

 To reproduce:
 1. Visit the Customizer
 2. Add a widget to a sidebar
 3. Attempt to change the title
