Thank goodness for a return to a fast, simple interface

I can’t imagine who wants block widgets. Or, at least, I can’t imagine who wants THIS kind of block management. It’s REALLY slow! It’s confusing! It gets hiccups if I try to do the slightest quick customisation of html (and I am talking really basic. Like, I wanted my button a bit bigger.)

I am very glad this plugin exists, since it opens the door to the previous fast, well thought out and easy to use system, but I am a bit baffled as to why it’s a plugin and not the default behaviour. I get the idea of being accessible, but I do not think novice WordPress users want to wait seconds for their widget management interface to load, or to have to wander in the confusion of ‘mystery meat’ navigation that it includes.

Without this plugin, WordPress widgets are near-unmanageable and I shall have to install it on all my WordPress sites.
