Description

> The widget visibility note in the advanced section for block widgets is kind of confusing when not on the “top level block”. Specifically for me because the top level block is a “group”. It seems like it might make more sense if the top level was a widget block perhaps? Or, even better, if we could simply link the user to the top level of the widget.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the widget visibility note in the advanced section for a block widget nested inside a group, using the screenshot and related issue #21222 as context. Compare the current message with the requested top-level navigation or clearer explanation; done means users can understand the nesting constraint and reach the widget's top level.
