Comment (by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:6 westonruter]:
 > Note that it does not currently support `add_option`, for which there
 may be instances of a single widget declaring the option it saves into up
 front.

 On the other hand: since these are single-instance widgets, if the widget
 is already in use, then capturing update_option() is enough. If the widget
 is not in use, we don't care strongly if add_option() gets used. I see two
 potential side effects: if an option is conditionally (and oddly)
 initialized (low severity), and that it has the potential to mess with
 future defaults (low severity but probably pretty weird if you encountered
 it).
