I have mainly seen sites using widgets on sidebars or inside multi-column layout. However, I was wondering what if we could use widgets in every blocks like header, main content block, footer etc. Is that a good or a bad idea?

It’s a bad idea. WordPress widgets were flexible but give you a low performance. In order to optimize the wordpress I used to code by myself to implement some functions, my blog’s sidebar didn’t use any widget but implement all I want such as an advanced “Recent Comments” module which contains the comment author’s avatar and the comment content
