Comment:

 I'm afraid after the recent changes in [41555] and [41594] the current
 patch doesn't work as expected. In some cases, I see one available
 position ''less'' than expected.

 To my understanding, the recent changes to the widgets already take care
 of discarding invalid/orphaned widgets from the sidebars. Haven't checked
 in depth but I think now there's only the need to associate the available
 positions with the name of the widgets they're assigned to.

 Note: At the time of writing this, there's only one week available for
 enhancements for 4.9 before Beta 1.
