The idea for this plugin came from a presentation at WordCamp Philly 
2011.
Code from these other plugins has served as reference and inspiration, and was sometimes borrowed from:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/disable-visual-editor-wysiwyg/ 
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/raw-html/
Plans:
<ul>
<li>Hide the disable option from non-admins.</li>
<li>Possibly remove certain filters from the the_content filter, similar to the Raw HTML or Preserved HTML Editor Markup plugins.</li>
</ul>

Don't Break The Code

Allows admins to disable the Visual editor tab on a per post basis.

<h4>WYSIWYG Widgets or rich text widgets</h4>
This plugin adds so called “Widget Blocks” to your website which you can easily display in your widget areas.
You can create or edit the widget blocks just like you would edit any post or page, with all the default WordPress editing functions enabled. This way, you can use the visual editor that comes with WordPress to format your widgets. You can even use media uploading to insert images and so forth.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Create beautiful widgets without having to write HTML code</li>
<li>Easily insert media into your widget content</li>
<li>Add headings, lists, blockquotes and other HTML elements to your widgets using the WordPress visual editor</li>
<li>Use WP Links dialog to easily link to any of your pages or posts from a widget</li>
<li>Use shortcodes inside your widgets</li>
<li>Translation ready</li>
</ul>

This is such a great way to create widget content!

Works Wonderfully!
