Comment(by CharlesClarkson):

 Replying to [comment:8 azaozz]:
 > Perhaps it would be better to standardize dynamic_sidebar() and require
 a name and a proper ID for each sidebar. We need to revisit the widgets
 API and remove deprecated functions anyways.

 Rewriting an API may be above my pay grade, but I'm willing to give it a
 try. What functions need to be deprecated? Are we going to preserve
 backward compatibility? Is there any WordPress API standard that I could
 read or emulate?
