I believe at least the first three were written from scratch without incorporating text from any previous draft.

WARP is a split from P+C, its ancestor is in the first draft. The Widget URI scheme was initially intended for P+C (as can be seen from the TBD section in older drafts) but the content wasn't written up before it was branched. View modes  were also in the 2008 P+C draft, but either way they probably shouldn't be listed as a widget deliverable considering that they can be used in even broader contexts (as requested by the CSS WG).

Essentially there is nothing new in widgets, the plan is simply to finish the existing ongoing work quickly.
