zope.formlib and z3c.form widgets are incompatible. But porting widgets
from formlib to z3c.form isn't hard. We've ported Martin's formlib
WYSIWYG widget to z3c.form in less than an hour, getting rid of some
Zope 2 hacks that proved unnecessary in the z3c.form model. You can
find the port in the plone.z3cform source.

We've used z3c.form forms successfully in a Plone 3 style portlet in
Singing & Dancing.

You can't use zope.formlib widgets with z3c.form. However, the set of
stock widgets for z3c.form is in very good shape, and there's people
that actively develop z3c.form widgets, see zw.widget, jquery.widget,
z3c.formjs, z3c.formdemo etc.
