Obviously the update_option() calls should only be run on activation, and not every time. I managed to fix this.

I have a problem with this, however. If a widget is inserted after having been registered using the update_option, that widget cannot be inserted again manually. Case in point, I have a breadcrumb widget that I'm inserting by default upon theme activation. Works fine. When I insert another copy of that widget, let's say I want it above my body content again -- the widget is saved in the backend but not shown in the frontend. Any tips?
