It's not the most user-friendly interface, and this probably is not an ideal situation for e.g., displaying a list of the most recent posts on a blog or meta site (you'd have to remember to manually update the list in the sidebar every time you made a new post).

But it might be a good workaround until a more fleshed-out widget admin interface is implemented.
