 * Hi,
 * I have a small feature request…
 * I would like an option to relocate a (already configured) widget to a different
   registered position… This would save quite a few clicks and seems (2 me) a pretty
   useful function

 * I can drag and drop a widget, up or down, to a new location.
 * Is there more you want to do?

 * Ah – I see now that I can drag and drop widgets within **one** sidebar to rearrange
   their order. What I meant was relocating between sidebars… I use a template with
   four sidebars and have defined an RSS feed in sidebar-1 and want to relocate 
   it to sidebar-3. Dragging and dropping doesn’t seem to work that way…

 * I believe they are redoing the widget interface for 2.8 so maybe that will be
   in there…

 * So… How to get in contact with ‘them’ so that ‘they’ know about my request?
