 The Customizer's legacy Widgets interface includes a `title` attribute for
 the sidebar description.

 If the description is worth showing, then changing it from a tooltip to
 visible text below the sidebar name would make it accessible to more
 people. If it is unnecessary, the title attribute could simply be removed.

 To find the sidebar list:
 1. Install and activate the Classic Widgets plugin.
 2. Activate a classic theme with multiple widget areas, such as Twenty
 Twenty.
 3. Go to the Customizer.
 4. Click the Widgets button.
 5. Click on one of the widget areas.
 6. Click the "Reorder (widgets)" button.
 7. Click on the "move to another area" button. This is the first icon of
 three, using the same arrow on a box that indicates external links in
 other places.
