 * Please leave the old widget interface. It is simple and intuitive. The new one
   is even worse than gutenberg (i was sure there could be nothing worse than gutenberg
   editor but i was wrong! Buttons are floating all over and changing position. 
   Seriously wordpress developers just making an editor with nice flat buttons does
   not make it good. You cant understand what are you adding in this ui nightmare.
   It is a mess. I hope the Gutenberg virus will not spread anymore.

 * Thanks thank god. I got also back the polylang integration for multilanguage 
   widgets. I hope the will roll back from this nightmare. It is even worse than
   editing a sharepoint site
