Comment:

 Thanks for the report cyman.

 The `wp_nav_menu()` function contains a filter which gets applied to the
 arguments for all nav menus
 ([https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/wp_nav_menu_args/ see
 here]).
 {{{
 $args = apply_filters ( 'wp_nav_menu_args', array $args );
 }}}
 Is this filter sufficient for your use case? You can target the menu using
 the `menu` parameter. Eg:
 {{{
 add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_args', function( array $args ) {
     if ( 'my_menu' == $args['menu'] ) {
         // do something
     }
 } );
 }}}
 If this isn't sufficient, and you think we might need a more targeted
 filter for the `WP_Nav_Menu_Widget`, then you can read up about Subversion
 and creating a patch on [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/svn/ the
 SVN page of the WordPress handbook]. Once you've created a patch file you
 can upload it to this ticket.
