Comment (by ramonopoly):

 > Is there a reason why single-quotes should not be decoded?

 Ah, this was an oversight. Good spotting, thank you @ocean90

 Just to confirm, we should change it to something like:

 {{{
 $widget['description'] = html_entity_decode( $widget['description'],
 ENT_QUOTES, get_bloginfo( 'charset' ) )
 }}}
