Comment (by swissspidy):

 > But I think now that if user want overwrite widget then he can
 unregister WordPress widget and register custom.

 That's how it currently works, yes. The difficulty with the proposed patch
 is that each widget is just so different. If you create a template file
 for a widget, you as a developer have no idea what variables you have
 access to.

 It would probably make more sense to just being able to filter the whole
 widget output, though I currently do not see any value in that.

 > What is the situation when selling theme? ThemeForest accept if
 developer remove native wordpress widgets?

 That's not something we should or need to care about.
