-        Cleanup the BECConnector
+        Create a new widget (or reuse an instance) and add it as a dock.
+
+        Args:
+            widget(QWidget | str): Instance or registered widget type string.
+            closable(bool): Whether the dock is closable.
+            floatable(bool): Whether the dock is floatable.
+            movable(bool): Whether the dock is movable.
+            start_floating(bool): Whether to start the dock floating.
+            floating_state(Mapping | None): Optional floating geometry metadata to apply when floating.
+            where(Literal["left", "right", "top", "bottom"] | None): Dock placement hint relative to the dock area (ignored when
+                ``relative_to`` is provided without an explicit value).
+            on_close(Callable[[CDockWidget, QWidget], None] | None): Optional custom close handler accepting (dock, widget).
+            tab_with(CDockWidget | QWidget | str | None): Existing dock (or widget/name) to tab the new dock alongside.
+            relative_to(CDockWidget | QWidget | str | None): Existing dock (or widget/name) used as the positional anchor.
+                When supplied and ``where`` is ``None``, the new dock inherits the
+                anchor's current dock area.
+            return_dock(bool): When True, return the created dock instead of the widget.
+            show_title_bar(bool | None): Explicitly show or hide the dock area's title bar.
+            title_buttons(Mapping[str, bool] | Sequence[str] | str | None): Mapping or iterable describing which title bar buttons should
+                remain visible. Provide a mapping of button names (``"float"``,
+                ``"close"``, ``"menu"``, ``"auto_hide"``, ``"minimize"``) to booleans,
+                or a sequence of button names to hide.
+            show_settings_action(bool | None): Control whether a dock settings/property action should
+                be installed. Defaults to ``False`` for the basic dock area; subclasses
+                such as `AdvancedDockArea` override the default to ``True``.
+            promote_central(bool): When True, promote the created dock to be the dock manager's
+                central widget (useful for editor stacks or other root content).
+            dock_icon(QIcon | None): Optional icon applied to the dock via ``CDockWidget.setIcon``.
+                Provide a `QIcon` (e.g. from ``material_icon``). When ``None`` (default),
+                the widget's ``ICON_NAME`` attribute is used when available.
+            apply_widget_icon(bool): When False, skip automatically resolving the icon from
+                the widget's ``ICON_NAME`` (useful for callers who want no icon and do not pass one explicitly).
+
+        Returns:
+            The widget instance by default, or the created `CDockWidget` when `return_dock` is True.
