 Similar to what we've done with the admin menu and meta boxes on the post
 screen, when you scroll down the list of available widgets, the widget
 areas should stay within the viewport if possible instead of simply having
 white space visible.

 This is far more obvious on a site which has lots of widgets (such as
 WordPress.com) which results in dragging widgets from the lower end of the
 available section to an area difficult.

 We do have alternative methods of adding widgets (Clicking and the
 Customizer) but I think this would be a huge win for the Widget screen.
