Comment (by cais):

 I can see using `<aside>` as a general "sidebar" wrapper but can also see
 some possible issues as noted by @joedolson due to its "landmark" uses for
 a11y; and, I definitely can see the `<section>` element as a functional
 widget wrapper ... again for the same reasons already noted, such as those
 by @greenshady.
