When you delete the widgets, Plasma sends notifications saying, "you deleted some widgets. Undo?"

Are these notifications still visible on screen when you reboot? If so, this is Bug 417114.

While I very much wish there was some way for Plasma to help you out with this specific problem, I'm afraid currently there is not. :(

Yes, Plasma does show this notifications.

No, these notifications are gone after a reboot.

But the notifications are still visible on the screen at the moment you reboot, right?
