 > Is there a particular problem that you see with introducing dedicated
 media widgets?

 The Media Widgets creates duplicate functionality of the Text Widget. They
 use too much space for simple tasks like displaying an image or an audio
 file, that ca easily added into the editor, if the widgets were a part of
 a page builder tool then I would be OK of this. There is no error or bug I
 can make a problem of , I don't understand what you want to hear from me
 repeating you question.
