Currently a WIP.

Fix #3976. This attempts to move the block toolbar below the block contents, to address #3976. That said: right now it doesn't really fulfil that function because it's contextually rendered.

Show/hiding this with CSS rather than contextually rendering it might fix things.

Thanks for working on this. It's important to remind that visual order must match DOM order.

Moving the toolbar after the block contents is something the accessibility team asked to explore in #3976 but it also implies that the visual order should be changed. That's the reason why we've proposed a user setting for this, as the visual/DOM position at the bottom might not be desirable for all users.

@tofumatt what's the status of this PR? Does it need to be reviewed by designers? I'm marking it as Stale as it contains merge conflicts for the code updated in recent months.

Let's close this one as it was a technical exploration and it doesn't look like it is going to be implemented this way. @tofumatt thank you for working on it 🙌
