Widget category

I'm aware of the seeming dislike of widgets here, but I thought I'd suggest this. I have a few widgets that are useful - at a glance information, saving me time and making things convenient, but they show information I don't necessarily want anyone looking at my phone to see (examples, not necessarily mine, are health information, a partner's or child's location, or a private to do list), and I don't like the wasted space on my home screen.

I could create an empty category with four widgets in a stack, and over half the category is empty visually, I have to do extra swipes, etc.

Or, I could use that empty category space and show 2 or maybe 3 widgets at once. That way they're not always visible, they presumably aren't always using resources (considering you've said that widget stacks save resources I assume a category would also be the case), and there could still be a limit of 3 or 4 per category.
