   I have mainly seen using widgets on sidebars or inside multi-column layout. However, I was wondering what if we could use widgets in every blocks like header, main content block etc. Is that a good or a bad idea?

   Sure you could. It's just a matter of coding.

   I'm not sure, do you think it's a good or bad idea? ;)

   It's up to you. Having that ability can be useful for non-technical users but when I want to add something to the_content or the header, I just code up something quick in my theme's functions.php file.

   There's probably a plugin for this, but I've not looked.
