Comment:

 I got a separate report for a plugin incompatibility that had the same
 effect of the controls not appearing for the Text and media widgets, via
 @salvatorebalzano:

 > the problem is `customize-widgets-plus plugin` is not compatible with
 the way the new text widget gets registered. ( same applies for the new
 Media widgets )
 > https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-widgets-plus/blob/master/php/class-
 optimized-widget-registration.php#L124-L125
 > and
 > https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-widgets-plus/blob/master/php/class-
 optimized-widget-registration.php#L272-L273
 >
 > new Text Widget uses `_register()` method to load TinyMCE editor and
 that method never gets called in `customize-widget-plus`

 Ironically the incompatibility is with a plugin I wrote myself. 😞

 I have a patch in [attachment:40951.0.diff] with a proposed fix. Can you
 test?
