Description
The Twenty Twenty-Two (TT2) theme currently sets a fixed padding-top
for the Post Comments block: https://github.com/WordPress/twentytwentytwo/blob/27054dbcb95f5d72cd943a0f3318c3ad97599f85/theme.json#L230-L236
This makes sense in the context of where that block is used in the theme's templates; however, it limits the block's usefulness when the user wants to customize the theme by moving the block elsewhere, since it always comes with that hard-wired top padding.
To remediate this, I'd suggest making the block's padding customizable through Inspector Controls (I believe Gutenberg has controls for block padding now?)
Alternatively, the padding could be removed, and a spacer block could be used instead (with its height set accordingly). The downside of this approach is that we can't set its height to a relative value like --wp--custom--spacing--small
; we'd have to assign a fixed value to it instead. Furthermore, this would basically revert https://github.com/WordPress/twentytwentytwo/pull/127.
