 Replying to [comment:64 Fab1en]:
 > To have the media preview in the backtend, we need to bring-in the full
 TinyMCE editor. And if we do this, text widget will become "rich text
 widget". Also, widget content is not filtered to display shortcodes, so
 modifying this behavior would introduce back-compat issues.

 See #35243 (Extending the text widget to also allow visual mode).

 > And we haven't say a word about Customizer integration ...

 See #35760 (Provide API for TinyMCE editor to be dynamically instantiated
 via JS).
