Comment:

 If I understood correctly, the problem here is checking for form validity
 even when it'll be deleted. It happens with Custom HTML Widget because it
 uses

 {{{
 control.fields.content[0].setCustomValidity( message );
 }}}

 but any other widget with an input field with "required" attribute would
 result in the same error.
