 another acted like closing “saved” the widget.

 If they don't see the change they made in the preview, then certainly I
 can understand why they would be concerned about the change not being
 saved. Maybe #39389 could then help there in that case by scrolling the
 widget into view?

 Wanted to follow up on this:

 One person kept closing every widget when she was done looking at them.
 After adding the image widget, she closed it using the "close" link and
 then immediately went and scrolled in the preview to look at it.

 The second person also did not look at the preview when he closed the
 widget in the sidebar. Additionally, he said:

 > The close button... I dunno, maybe change it... I'm not sure. Initially
 when I'm finished completing the widget, hitting "close," it doesn't
 strike me as instantly as it being saved. When I'm finished interacting
 with the widget, I don't know if it's going to be saved. So maybe instead
 of being "close" maybe it's "done." When I hit close, maybe if there's
 some way to have a confirmation that everything I've done is being saved.

 So, I think #39389 might help here.
