Hey everyone,
I have just taken a look into this issue, and this UI bug was reported
against the classic widget management screen in wp-admin. Since this
ticket was created, the WordPress landscape has changed significantly.
With the release of WordPress 5.8, the new block-based widget editor
became the default experience for classic themes. Furthermore, with the
ongoing development of Full Site Editing (FSE) and block themes, the
concept of traditional widget areas is being phased out in favor of direct
template and template part editing using blocks.
The interface where this bug was present is now considered legacy
functionality and is only active for users who have installed the "Classic
Widgets" plugin.
Given that the core project has moved in a different direction and this UI
is no longer the default, it's not practical to dedicate resources to
fixing this visual bug. The modern block-based interfaces do not suffer
from this issue.
For these reasons, I am suggesting we close this ticket as wontfix. Thank
you for everyone's input, and if you believe this ticket shouldn't be
closed, please reopen it.
