I'll second that and add my own little request. Could you consider bringing back or recreating a "repository" for active widgets that have to be temporarily removed from a sidebar. This is especially important when considering text widgets. Currently, if for any reason, a user needs to temporarily remove a text widget or widgets from their sidebar(s) then the text/html within that widget ceases to exist and the the text widget has to be rewritten from scratch before it can be put back and this is a major inconvenience. For example, it's quite often that a text widget that has html or script written to it that links to some social service, Flickr image (among others) or news gadget has to be removed temporarily if the respective service goes down (which can stop their site from fully loading). Pre WP 2.5 you had a area to place these widgets that were temporarily removed and they would keep their format and now, of course, we don't.

Respectfully submitted.

Gents,

Can we change that Widget design to where you can move your widgets between
the sidebars, without having to copy/paste/delete old/create new? Like you
used to could in previous versions?

I like the new design, with the second way confirm step, but the lack being
able to move stuff, and all the extra steps, quite frankly, sucks.

Thanks,

Pat
