Comment:

 As noted in the [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/12/08/gutenberg-
 phase-2/ Gutenberg Phase 2 post], the wp-admin Widgets screen will be
 reworked to use blocks as Widgets. See
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/13204

 Hopefully, the new user interface will be designed with accessibility in
 mind from the beginning and finally WordPress will be able to remove the
 alternate "accessibility mode" used in the current Widgets screen. Serving
 the same (accessible) content to all users is always the best option.

 I'm going to close this ticket as "wontfix". Sorry for the lack of a more
 proper keyword (a "replaced by" keyword would be more appropriate). Thanks
 everyone for the explorations and patches here. Tickets can always be
 reopened and discussion can continue on closed tickets.
