Description
Adding a widget with no options to a sidebar places the widget in "expanded" form in the sidebar with no immediately obvious way to continue addding more widgets (because there is no "save" button).
You can add further widgets after "minimizing" the newly-added widget.
Suggested way forward - it would be more consistent if all widgets had the "save" button. Alternatively, widgets without options could be added in the "collapsed" state thus removing the click required to minimize the widget.
Attached screenshot shows what I mean re: the lack of a save box.
Leaving this as a bug as it appears broken to me.

They can be closed from the open/close arrow on the right side of the titlebar. Perhaps we need to make these arrows always on and more visible (and possibly change them Up/Down for open/close).
Also more widgets can be added while some are still open, it's just less convenient to drag them. Having a Save button when there's nothing to save doesn't seem right.
no save button, unlike widgets with options
