Comment (by westonruter):

 @slewisma there would still be:

 * the `widget_custom_html_content` filter that ''only'' applies to the
 Custom HTML widget, and
 * the `widget_text_content` filter that ''only'' applies to the Text
 widget

 My suggestion is that we take the `widget_text` filter which currently
 applies before the `widget_text_content` filter, to also apply it before
 the `widget_custom_html_content` filter. Thus the `widget_text` filter
 would apply in ''both'' widgets.

 This would remain in place going forward, but eventually the `widget_text`
 filter could get marked as deprecated, in favor of using the
 `widget_text_content` and `widget_custom_html_content` filters only.
