Description
The widget plugin appears to be relying on CKEDITOR.dom.element's find and findOne methods, which use querySelector and querySelectorAll, respectively, of the Selectors API(http://www.w3.org/TR/selectors-api/). It appears the Selectors API is not available in IE9 quirks mode.
Using the attached ckeditor project and a simple http server like Python 3.0 http.server...

Notice that toolbar plugins are not enabled. There are also console errors. SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'querySelectorAll' element.js, line 1897 character 5

The quirks mode for IE8-9, that you use, puts browser into 5.5 version. As you may have deduct from the comment - since some API is not available in IE7 it won't be available in IE 5.5.
The only solution to this is not using quirks mode.

So on http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/guide/dev_browsers
A-Graded Browser Support <snip> Internet Explorer: 8.0, 9.0, 9.0 Quirks, 10, and 11 <snip> All browsers are to be supported for web pages with the Document Type Declaration (DOCTYPE) of HTML5 (<!DOCTYPE html>) except for IE 9 Quirks that will support unknown doctypes.
Does this not apply to the widget plugin? Or is there another form of quirks that is supported?
I only ask because switching to standards mode would be a non-trivial change for the Enterprise application we are trying to use CKEditor+Widget SDK in.
