4594	Widgets API to check for active sidebars	filosofo		"There should be a way to check if particular sidebar is in use, because a theme developer might want to change the markup in the presence of a sidebar actually being used.

My patch adds a ""is_active_sidebar"" function, to which one can pass a sidebar name, id, or number to return a boolean value reflecting whether that sidebar is actually in use."	enhancement	closed	normal	2.8	Widgets	2.3	normal	fixed	has-patch	filosofo
