 In {{{WP_Widget::__construct()}}} - according to the documented specs -
 first parameter {{{$id_base}}} has to be unique.

 Next to the fact that is not properly documented to what domain the
 uniqueness has to pay to, the input is not verified at all for uniqueness
 leaving the specification useless as well as leaving Wordpress open to a
 malfunction on the underlying data structures and models.
