Otherwise they're impossible to discover.

This would still be helpful, currently I provide a guide for my end users in the room chat of the widget, explaining how to pin and maximise it.

This issue is also related to https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/15737, which suggests 'widgets pinned by default' and 'adding a toolbar icon for the widget when pinned'. But a very good point was raised, "We could instead allow widgets to be displayed as individual rooms", which could be the ideal outcome.
