Comment (by standardspace):

 Hi Weston,
 I've tested that on a clean wp install all seems to work as I would
 expect.

 I've added the following to my functions.php :

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 add_action( 'widgets_init', function() {
     unregister_widget( 'WP_Widget_Media_Image' );
     unregister_widget( 'WP_Widget_Media_Audio' );
     unregister_widget( 'WP_Widget_Media_Video' );
     unregister_widget( 'WP_Widget_Media_Gallery' );
 } );

 }}}

 and the Text widget's "Add Media" was able to function without the other
 media widgets present.

 Looks like a fix. Thanks
