Comment (by shaunandrews):

 I like that highlight effect, but it doesn't solve the root problem: it's
 not obvious that you can drop widgets into sidebars. Highlighting them
 once you drag the widget helps, but you have to try to drag the widget
 first. The dashed bordered "dropzone" indicator was more obvious as it was
 always visible in empty sidebars. It also had the benefit of making
 sidebars look less strange when they were empty.

 I think the highlight in drag effect should go in regardless.
