 The Widgets screen doesn't handle an expired nonce gracefully, and can
 result in the user thinking something saved, when in actual fact it was
 silently discarded.

 For example
 - Adding/Removing Widgets appears to work, doesn't take effect
 - Editing a Text Widget (or any titles of other widgets) and hitting save
 will result in a spinner, and then disappear the same way a successful
 save operates, even though the ajax calls returned `-1` to signify a nonce
 error / not logged in error
