I have rebased this. It needed some manual conflict res so I hope nothing is broken. It does test very well. |

This tests actually quite well. @getdave I'm curious, what we need to do to get this tidied up? |

One thing to explore would be to keep these accessible within List View, so you can still select + shuffle headers and footers; we'd just keep them pinned to the top and bottom, per #60054. |

Copied from #60609 (comment).
These are not the only content types so I'd prefer if remove this. I'd rather do the following algorithm instead:
1- If mode = "template-locked": look for post-content block
2- If mode is not "template-locked', look for the "main" group block
3- fallback to top level. (undefined section container I guess)

The original PR has been iterated on to:
- transform the concept of section id from a state concept to a setting in block editor
- make sure the block editor remains decoupled conceptually from editor
- apply block editting modes as efficiently as possible
- make the zoom out mode display an assembly like interaction, if there is a section root found and even if there is no section root found
- make sure the assembly interaction works for pages and templates alike
- remove unrelated updates, such as the behavior of list view
I think this can safely land, the new block editor setting is locked and there doesn't seem to be any remaining conceptual, performance or code quality concern.

Does it need to be declared here if it's locked?

It looks like it doesn't need to be declared here if it isn't part of the parent settings that we want to include.

This still isn't testing very well for me in a lot of scenarios. On most pages, the post content block is selectable instead of the content which is unexpected.

What?
This PR introduces the notion of a section root block, much like we have the grouping block. This is the root block of all sections. By default this root is a group block with the tag
main, but in certain contexts editors would want to set it to something else. For example the site editor while editing a page will set the section root block to be the post content block since that's where the sections are.In Zoomed out mode:
