Note: This plugin still works but it doesn’t really contain any major features that the native Text widget is missing. The plugin is no longer in active developement.
This plugin adds a rich text widget where the content is edited using the standard WordPress visual editor which most users already are familiar with. 
It uses the WP core function wp_editor() without adding a custom post type post for each widget making the widget quicker and simpler to edit.

I used it to add client instructions to an admin page. This makes adding screenshots and video quite easy.
