Problem: Rearranging content in the editor is a cumbersome process. It supports drag-and-drop, but if you have a section with a heading, image, post, a bulleted list, and a link, for example, each of those sections has to be moved one by one.

Request: Add the ability to group editor cards into sections. Allow each section to be moved by drag-and-drop.

This could also potentially allow functionality such as adding borders or custom background colors to specific sections.

For layout purposes, I use an HTML card to open a div, and another one to close a div. Add a class to that div, and you can style the contents in a variety of ways. Here are a couple examples:
