Description
This ticket follows up on the discussion started by @shireling on #39087.
The problem: The customizer only displays the widgets for the page you're on. For consistency and usability, we'd like to have all widgets appear in the customizer.
Solution: Show all widgets in the customizer with a message indicating which aren't showing on the page. See attachment for suggest solution.

An accordion to show/hide the inactive sidebars would actually have some parity with what is proposed in #27404 for adding inactive widgets to the available widgets panel.

@zoonini ah, right! Do you think this should be marked as a duplicate and the scope of the other ticket focus on widgets?

What if the notification there is also accompanied by (or part of) and accordion bar that could show/hide the widget areas below? By default it could be expanded, but collapsing it could set a user preference to remember the expanded state.
