Comment (by dfterry):

 I assume it will be changed to a default HTML view and create a new
 WYSIWYG widget for new users.. Every other alternative seems to have no
 understanding of what this change has caused.
 I don't want to be required to remember to change a setting before I edit
 a widget.
 I don't want HTML auto-changed when I edit a widget. (see above)
 I don't want to update old websites to cater to a new way of doing things
 unless it is completely amazing.
