Meredith, I would not use a progress bar to solve this design problem (of the widgets). I would instead state the completion status or rather the "not complete" status of the widget definition [B]. Basically you can't continue with [A] without having completed [B]. Simple instructions or indicators at start and through the process can serve the purpose. It's very similar to the "* required field" device.
