Comment (by westonruter):

 @karmatosed so you're thinking of something that appears next to the
 current Reorder link and Add Widget button?

 Aside, here is a JS snippet for clearing out a widget area:

 {{{#!js
 function emptyWidgetArea( sidebarId ) {
         var targetSidebarSetting, inactiveSidebarSetting, widgetIds;
         targetSidebarSetting = wp.customize('sidebars_widgets[' +
 sidebarId + ']');
         inactiveSidebarSetting =
 wp.customize('sidebars_widgets[wp_inactive_widgets]');

         // Grab existing widget IDs from sidebar.
         widgetIds = targetSidebarSetting.get();

         // Clear out sidebar of widgets.
         targetSidebarSetting.set( [] );

         // Append removed widget IDs to the inactive sidebar.
         inactiveSidebarSetting.set( inactiveSidebarSetting.get().concat(
 widgetIds ) );
 }
 }}}
