as discussed. take victors navtree code and include it in this addon to just get a very basic list of blocks. Later we can take this out and use the proper navtree that will be included in 18.

@MAX-786 this is his latest version. We probably can't wait to have this merged but we can just copy some of the code and make a simpler version for now that list lists out the blocks

@JeffersonBledsoe it seems like the blocks nav branch is almost finished. Would there be any problem using it as is and therefore using the latest 18 and 6.1 backend?

Descision was to wait until the navtree is released into a 18 alpha and instead do the click on preview to select earlier #24

Not something that needs to be solved here but seems that blocks navtree doesn't really have a good logical place in the quanta design.

Tabs are gone and instead you get a settings button

and if you close the sidebar then you would have to use the quanta toolbar to open it again

One obvious option is another icon in the toolbar. But its going to take up space for something not that often used.

Instead I think it should be both in the Page settings and in the block settings

in the page settings as a section
- this means you can still select a block even with block clicking disabled
in the block settings as a breadcrumb up the top above the block name, with a dropdown/expand icon.
- this expands into block navigation
- this means that you also get a quick way to go up to the parent and some information about containment

@MAX-786 the order tab is now deployed but I can't see to click on a block and edit it. I'm not sure if thats something you've broken or thats just not meant to be how it works?

In volto, clicking on blocks in Order tab will select the block on screen, so I am aiming for that for the iframe. I'll create a seperate PR for that.
