 > Thanks, but I don't think so. As I just noted there now, requiring a
 user to re-create all of their widgets every time they switch to a new
 theme just isn't going to go over well.

 When switching to a new theme we can insert default widgets with their
 setting OR to take from the previous theme. So the user will not be
 required to re-create all of their widgets.
