Comment (by azaozz):

 Related: #39993, #39994, #39995.

 After the patch on #35760 we should be able to make this enhancement
 relatively easily. As there are separate media widgets, the Text widget
 would be "pure" HTML.

 We should add the [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/35243
 /text-widget.png TinyMCE buttons] and the corresponding Quicktags buttons
 for the Text tab, then disable the `wpview` plugin as oEmbeds won't be
 supported (they require a post_ID to work). Also think the `wpautoresize`
 plugin and the TinyMCE `media` plugin won't be needed here.
