Comment (by westonruter):

 @Ov3rfly yes, as you can see from [attachment:microdata-retained-in-
 legacy-mode.png], if you have any pre-existing Text widget with any markup
 that is not in the “basic”, which TinyMCE is normally dealing with, then
 the widget will be presented in legacy mode. But going forward, use of the
 new Custom HTML widget will be the way to go for such markup.
