Block descriptions and previews will support content editors in making more informed choices when selecting blocks, speeding up the creation of new content.
Intended Outcome
Developers will be able to add StreamField block descriptions, similar to page_description, but for block types.
They will also be able to add StreamField block preview screenshots.
When added, this information will appear within the block chooser UI for CMS users.
I would love to see this in Wagtail! Currently it is very difficult to see the difference between the different content blocks when they are all collapsed.
Summary
Block descriptions and previews will support content editors in making more informed choices when selecting blocks, speeding up the creation of new content.
