Why not go the way of the new properties inspector? Make a widgets pane and a 'normal" tool pane. Same real estate, same palette.

If I was voting, I would vote for a pop-out menu, perhaps - so you would
have a widget button in the palette with a right-facing triangle which pops
out the widgets.  Alternatively, you could right-click on a widget button
in the tools palette to show the widgets list
