Comment:

 Not all users know this alternate mode so basically we're speaking about
 this, see in the screenshot below:

 This alternate screen can be enabled toggling the link "Enable/Disable
 accessibility mode" in the Screen Options. When reordering the widget
 position the select shows just numbers. It's difficult to remember the
 actual widgets position in each sidebar.

 By the way, not all widgets have "titles" to show, several instances of
 the same widgets can be used on the sidebars, etc. Widgets do always have
 a widget type "name" though and we could at least add the widget type
 name. Additionally, the selects the edited widget is '''not''' assigned
 to, should have an empty, available, select option with some proper text,
 e.g. "Available position".

 This screen could receive some UI tweaking too, for example I don't see
 any reason why the content should be centered, unless I'm missing
 something.
