Like \hat, but wide:

We'll have to grab additional glyphs for wide accents. Having width metrics would help with this but we could fake it by counting the number of characters inside the \widehat.

There are a series of similar commands, with other symbols, that should probably be dealt together with \widehat, e.g. \widetilde (for the tilda), \overrightarrow and \overleftarrow (for the arrows).

Yes, it is more like \overbrace{asdfghjkl} which works fine in MathJax (there you have something to start with).
Even in classical LaTeX or MathJax the \widehat doesn't work that well, see:
