 As more and more themes are taking advantage of the powerful widget
 functionality to put user definable spaces in the footer, multiple side
 bars and even in the page itself. Sometimes this results in themes with
 from 5 to 10 widetized areas.

 I suggest a full redesign of the widgets admin page so that multiple
 widgets can be displayed together.

 If this is too much to ask, then perhaps a minor suggestion for
 improvement. Right now when you need to switch between widgetized areas,
 it is a multi click process. why not switch areas when the drop down menu
 changes, why should you need to click 'Show'.
