 I don't believe there's currently an action fired after a Widget is added
 or updated in the normal/traditional means (Appearance -> Widgets). There
 is delete_widget, but not a similar update_widget.

 In googling to find out what action to use, I found lots of people trying
 to do exactly the same thing I am (with no luck): Clearing page caches
 after a widget has been added or updated.

 A simple do_action( 'update_widget ) type of action would benefit a lot of
 users.

 Thanks!
