 4.2 introduces an E_USER_NOTICE error message if the active theme fails to
 include a non-empty `id` value in the args to register_sidebar().

 Unfortunately, changing this value causes the sidebar to become blank, as
 tested in both 4.1.1 and 4.2-beta4.  Reverting the theme restores the
 sidebar as well as the error message.

 :(
