GP Elements & Gutenberg

Wonder if this has crossed your mind...
What if Elements could be dropped into pages as blocks in Gutenberg?
Not even 100% sure that's possible, but wouldn't it be cool? :)
It definitely would. Right now only "Hooks" would be possible.
However, Gutenberg itself has re-usable blocks, so I'm not sure how useful it would be.
It's something I'm keeping a close eye on :)
I knew you'd be on it. :)
I think Elements is a great fit. Maybe they become reusable blocks, but with the same amount of settings like responsive padding/margin, background, etc...
My biggest gripe with Gutenberg right now is that I can't easily create sections -- where the container goes full width, with a colorful background, and the content is contained with the rest of the site.
I saw talks of a container block, but I don't want to install add-on blocks just for a container. :)
Plus Elements have those {{}} template tags, which are quite useful too.
Good stuff.
Ah yes, "Sections" is something I'm very aware of in Gutenberg ;)
Hehe... I imagine so.
