Hovering and just waiting, even once you've learned it's possible, is always going to be an unsatisfying user experience - you're literally waiting around until the system deigns to approve your intent (long-press, in contrast is still //active// to some extent). I'd be worried that some users might learn "long hover" as "this is how it's supposed to be done" and then be forever annoyed that widgets are so cumbersome to handle. I'd propose removing it and fully leading users towards Edit Mode instead?

  And long hover is not something that would work with touch devices or is common in plasma or other environments, so I don't see a point in introducing a new usage pattern, that looks to me quiet cumbersome and problematic.
