Sweet Widget Templates
Provides a simple templating system for WordPress Widgets that include 2 main features:
1. A Template Hierarchy for Widgets
2. Ability to select a custom template for individual widgets on the admin dashboard.
This plugin expects your theme to contain a folder named widgets. Place your widget templates into that folder. To change the name of this folder, see the sweetwidgetstemplates-folder filter.

When a widget is being rendered this plugin looks for an appropriate template in the active theme. If no appropriate template is found the widget will appear as it would normally, according to the details of registersidebar() implementations.
Custom Template Per Widget
