How to Fix Mandatory 'Titles' - Blogger Gadgets - Glitch

For those using Google's Blogger or Blogspot blogging platform, you may have noticed that I believe as of today there has been a 'change' as to how gadgets are entitled which can normally be left blank. Apparently, it's now mandatory to have a title on all widgets as soon as you attempt to edit them.

This morning I was editing a widget and when it came time to save the widget red text appeared that said 'required field must not be blank'...? Huh?! Try again, same thing and again and yet again...meaning that apparently the title field on all widgets now have to contain content.

According to the Blogger Forum, this appears to be just a semi permanent glitch that they will be looking into so, in the meantime, if you need a quick fix?!
