[theme-reviewers] Unregister core plugins

[Edward Caissie]

Agreed. Unregistering the core Text Widget does not seem to make a great
deal of sense considering how generic it's utility is. IF there is
something special about a "text" widget the theme "requires" then I would
suggest simply registering a custom Theme specific widget.

I also see (most of) the "widget" related guideline(s) to be more for
clarifications than anything else.
